This specimen was lot 71247 in Stack's Bowers Collectors Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, September 2025), where it sold for $2,880. The catalog description[1] noted, "FRANCE. Consulate. Franc, Year 12-W (1803/4). Lille Mint. Napoleon (as First Consul). PCGS AU-58. Residing at the precipice of Mint State status, this minor from the final year of Napoleon's role as first consul displays elegant gunmetal gray surfaces and alluring pullaway toning, all while alluring brilliance radiates from the protected areas. From the Richard Margolis Collection (acquired from Platt in 1983 for $391.25). Ex: "Collection D" (Maison Platt - 5/1983) Lot # 150." This type was struck years XI and 12 and the Paris mint product is moderately common (52.9% of the total minted).
Recorded mintage: 28,155[2], a scarce date. The Lille did not strike the Empereur type in An 12.
Specification: 5 g, 0.900 fine silver, 23 mm diameter, decorated edge.
Catalog reference: F.200/22, KM-649.14; Gad-442.
