France 1829H 5 francs rev DSLR.jpg

This type was struck during the reign of Charles X (1824-30) from numerous mints. The silver five francs of this regime are divided into two types, most easily distinguished by the position of MICHAUD's name near the base of the king's bust. The specimen shown is the second type and is a slightly better date from the La Rochelle mint. Many the 52 dates of this type are known from a handful (<10) of examples. The type is not difficult to find but is expensive in high grade.

Recorded mintage: 1,153,393.

Specification: 25 g, 0.900 fine silver, 37 mm diameter, lettered edge, designed by Auguste François Michaut, 1786-1879.

Catalog reference: F.311/31, Dav-88; KM-728.6; Gad-644.
