Napoleon III was one of the most popular emperors in French history. Despite his disastrous involvement in the Franco-Prussian War, a conflict that ended his reign, he is remembered for his modernization of the French economy, the grand reconstruction of Pairs that saw countless new boulevards and parks added to the city, and the expansion of the French overseas empire.

JM Bullion offers these coins to you at random. We select coins to fulfill your order after your payment has cleared and can only select from available inventory at that point in time.

On the obverse of all 20 Francs France Gold Coins is an effigy of Napoleon III. However, there are two possible right-profile portraits of Napoleon III on these coins. Those coins dated 1853 to 1860 have the first portrait of Napoleon III as a younger man with no laurel wreath. From 1861 to 1870, an updated portrait with an older Napoleon III wearing a laurel wreath is featured on the coins.

The reverse side of 20 Francs Gold Coins also features two possible designs. From 1853 to 1860, a simple design with a wreath and the denomination at the center was used. From 1861 to 1870, the Imperial Coat of Arms of the French Empire is featured on the coins. Both design combinations came from Desire-Albert Barre.
