France
Napoleon "Hundred Days" 5 Francs 1815-A AU55 NGC, Paris mint, KM704.1, Dav-85. A strong example of this famous issue with argent-gray color that evenly drapes both sides and moments of golden luster that still glisten from the legends. A few more noticeable marks are observed in the fields but wear is fairly minimal at the highpoints. Struck during the volatile "hundred days" between Napoleon's return from exile and the second restoration of King Louis XVIII, and a wonderful representative of the type as such.
