| Beschrijving voorzijde | A harlequin figure in theatrical costume stands in the central field, surrounded by six scrolled calendar tablets displaying the dates for the first six months of 1978 (Janvier, Février, Mars, Avril, Mai, Juin), each inscribed with the full weekly date grid. Radiating sunburst motifs and six-pointed stars fill the upper field behind the figure. The date 1978 appears in a raised cartouche at the base of the design. The encircling legend reads VOICI L'ANNEE NOUVELLE QU'APPORTERA-T-ELLE, disposed around the full circumference in raised Latin characters. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Monnaie de Paris has produced annual calendar medals since the early 1950s, issued primarily as institutional gifts and sold through the Paris mint's own retail network. The 1978 piece falls squarely in the mature phase of that tradition, by which point the series had become a reliable fixture of French official gift-giving rather than a numismatic novelty. Florentine bronze — a matte-textured finish achieved through a brushing process after striking — was the house choice for large-diameter medals of this type, giving the surface a warm, non-reflective quality that photographs poorly but reads well in hand.
