Item Details
Description
A fine 10 Francs gold coin pendant, Paris, France, circa 1864. This Second Empire or Napoleon III coin, bears the Emperor on the obverse with the words Napoleon III Empereur and Barre (for designer Jean Jacques Barre). The reverse states, Empire Francais 10 Franc 1864 A. This is a rare example as after 1861 the majority of 10 Franc coins were minted with the Emperor having a Laurel crowned head. The coin has been set in a beautifully crafted 18 karat yellow gold setting. The pendant is unmarked but tested positive for 18Kt gold. It is in excellent antique condition showing only general signs of wear. The coin is 21.6 karat gold or 0.900 fineness and weighs 3.23 grams. The diameter of the coin is approximately 19 mm (0.75 inches). The total weight of the pendant is 4.95 grams and it measures 0.89 inches (2.25 cm) wide by 1.18 inches (3 cm) tall, including the bail. Timeless!
