€10 FRANCE 2022 - Asterix & Obelix "Idefix"
After the release of the first collection, which celebrated the upcoming new album “Asterix and the Griffin” in 2021, once again Monnaie de Paris continues to pay tribute to the most famous Gaul in 2022 with the second part of the collection.
This Dogmatix-shaped coin pays tribute to the character created by Uderzo, the faithful dog and friend of our favorite Gauls. The dog, always concerned about environmental problems and ready for action, is here showing a proud smile.
On the reverse, Idefix's favorite bones cover the background. At the bottom of the coin, we can find the value number, the mention "RF" and the date of the year 2022.
The collection
Following the launch of the first collection celebrating the release of the new album Asterix and the Griffin in 2021, the Monnaie de Paris continues to honor one of the iconic figures of French comics at the heart of this innovative new monetary collection.
Translating comic book characters is an interesting but dangerous exercise. The transition from the comic strip to the volume must faithfully transcribe the clear line of the work of Uderzo and Conrad. These medals are the faithful representation of a graphic line of the French artist, it is a three-dimensional tribute that the artisans of Monnaie de Paris pay to the universe of Asterix.
