photo courtesy Heritage Auction Galleries

This type was struck 1809-14 in large quantities. It is the most common Napoleonic coin. This specimen, from the Rome mint, is a rare date, especially compared to the 1811-A (over 31 million minted). This specimen was lot 21166 in Heritage sale 3008 (New York, January 2010), where it sold for $6,325. The catalog description[2} noted, "Napoleon Empereur 5 Francs 1812-Crowned R, AU53 NGC, superbly toned with virtually no wear evident, extremely close to mint state with aged cabinet patina and instant eye appeal. The very rare Rome minting of this type featuring the Crowned R mintmark. A classic Napoleonic issue and the first we have seen." The Rome mint was occupied by French forces 1812-13 during Napoleon's rule and used to strike coins of French design. After his fall, the mint resumed issuing Papal coins.

Recorded mintage: 48,650[1].

Specification: 25 g, 0.900 fine silver, 37 mm diameter, edge lettered DIEU PROTEGE LA FRANCE, designed by Pierre Joseph Tiolier.

Catalog reference: Dav-85, F.307/52, KM 694.13, Gad-584.
