This specimen was lot 1688 in Sincona sale 47 (Zurich, May 2018), where it sold for 275 CHF (about US$330 including buyer's fees). The catalog description<sup>[2]</sup> noted, <blockquote>"''FRANKREICH, I. Kaiserreich. Napoleon I. 1804-1815. 1 Franc 1813 CL, Genua. Schön.'' ([[France]], First Empire, Napoleon I, 1804-15, one franc of 1813, Genoa mint. Fine.)"</blockquote> In 1806 the French revolutionary calendar was dropped and normal AD dating resumed. This type is the last and probably the most available Napoleonic franc. It was demonetized in 1869. A complete set of this type comprises 74 date and mintmark combinations, many very rare. This coin is an issue of the Genoa mint which operated as a French branch mint 1813-14 only, striking half, one, two, five, [[France 1813-CL 20 francs|twenty]] and [[France 1813-CL 40 francs|forty franc]] pieces, all rare.

The first specimen was lot 24549 in Heritage sale 3026 (Long Beach, October 2013), where it sold for $705. The catalog description<sup>[1]</sup> noted, "Napoleon 5 Francs 1813-A, MS61 NGC, a nice lustrous example with faint adjustment marks on the bust. Scarce type in mint state." This issue, from the Paris mint, is a common date of a type struck 1809-15. After the year 14, the revolutionary calendar was dropped in favor of the traditional Gregorian calendar. The twenty francs of Napoleon are divided into seven types, of which this is the seventh. It was demonetized in 2005 but ceased to circulate in [[France]] during World War One. This type succeeded the "REPUBLIQUE FRANCAISE" reverse struck 1807-08. A complete set of this type comprises 95 date and mintmark combinations, some very rare. The entire production run totaled about 127 million pieces.
