Hello,
I found this Napoleon piece in a mixed coin lot and could not find further information online. Maybe someone here can help.
Details:
- Obverse: Bust of Napoleon with inscription “NAPOLEON EMPEREUR”
- Reverse: Crown over letter “N”, surrounded by laurel wreath
- Diameter: approx. 27–28 mm
- Weight: 9 g
- Color: silver-like
- Non-magnetic → likely copper-nickel or nickel silver, possibly silver plated
- Provenance: from a mixed coin lot (1675–1929), no further context
- No date, no denomination
Questions:
- Is this an official coin, a token, or a commemorative medal?
- Are there known similar issues (e.g. Napoleon jetons, later commemoratives)?
- Any idea about collector value?
Thanks a lot for your help!
