€10 FRANCE 2022 - Rafale Marine
Coins designed in collaboration with Romain Hugault, famous comic book author.
Tribute to the airplanes that have marked History.
The Rafale Marine, an iconic aircraft of the French National Navy.
In 2022, Monnaie de Paris pays tribute to the Dassault Aviation Rafale, an omnirole combat aircraft developed for the French Navy and Air Force, delivered on May 18, 2001 and entering service in 2002 in the Navy.
The obverse depicts a Rafale on approach with the landing hook deployed. In the background, we can see the aircraft carrier in the open sea.
The naval aviation cockade is inscribed throughout the perimeter.
The signature "Rafale" is attached to the Navy anchor.
The reverse , common to the series, presents the profiles of two pilots, symbolizing the different eras and types of use: civil and military. In the sky there are several aircraft, also representing different eras and uses, in a tribute to the history of aviation.
The face value is inscribed at the bottom left of the reverse, as is the "RF" symbol.
