On the occasion of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Monnaie de Paris pays tributes to these renowned international competitions through a collection honoring sport, its values, the athletes but also the host country’s heritage. Olympism and Paralympism are will be highlighted on those products, struck in France in our art workshops.
In 2022, a series is dedicted to Team France.
The obverse of the coins presents the new emblem of the French team : a rooster seen from above, with a determinate stare, representing the French spirit, dynamic and breaking the codes.
The reverse is separated in two : on one hand, the emblem of the rooster is placed in an all-over pattern and on the other hand, several fragments which are emblematic to the French Team universe are represented.
