This specimen was lot 31062 in Heritage auction 3096 (Dallas, TX, March 2021), where it sold for $3,120. The catalog description[1] noted, "France: Republic gold Proof "Dupre Style Bust" 100 Francs 2000 PR70 Ultra Cameo NGC, Paris mint. A technically perfect specimen that shares the finest designation with one other, and boasts a modernized representation of the iconic Dupre bust found on earlier coins of the French Republic. Accompanied by its original Monnaie de Paris COA. From the Paramount Collection." Starting in the 1980's, the Paris mint issued so many NCLT's that the standard catalogs had to drop them to keep the books a manageable size. This one was struck to honor Dupre's bust of Liberty, used on copper coins of the 1790's.
Recorded mintage: 1,000.
Specification: 17 g, 0.920 fie gold, AGW 0.5028 oz.
Catalog reference: KM-Unl., Fr-746.
