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.
For the first time in history, French athletes are united behind a single symbol.
These exclusive medallions are adorned on their obverse with the emblem of the French team, representing a cockerel with its crest raised, ready to fight.
The reverse of the medallions presents in a fragments structure, the word “France”.
The cardboards, blue for the Olympic team, and red for the Paralympic team are highlighting the colors of Team France.
