Gorgeous coin! And now you see where the US Mint got their designs from...STOLEN from the French!

EDIT: Sorry did not realize how old this thread was. ———————————- Beautiful. Would be so happy to own it. May I ask what the price was? NumisRob: There is actually one on ebay right now that might be even a tad nicer: https://www.ebay.de/itm/25429796374...s&media=COPYI am eyeing it, but the price really is too high for me.

Yeah, but unfortunately still more than I am willing to spend.

Combined NGC/PCGS pop for 5 Franc Ceres, done about a year ago (Sept 8, 2021)...  Less than 200 graded MS63 or better. That's why prices have soared.

Many of the good coinswill be in France/Europe though, where grading&slabbing coins is uncommon.
Not to say that the price is not market appropriate!

They'll get graded eventually as the price and demand continue to increase. US coins went through the same situation, and prices of them didn't exactly plummet.

I did not want to suggest that prices will go down.
However, grading&slabbing in Europe is not exactly popular.

It is not popular because it would expose the fact that many European sellers clean their coins.

I am not sure that this is the main reason, but lets not get into this here.
