    About €50 in proof. But other than that, it's a fairly common piece. Mintage of the "regular" version was 900,000 - and the price in euro is in the one digit range. I have one, primarily because of the interesting design.

    Thank you!

    I saw it at a shop who sells key chain,(Porte Cle)
    so I don't think the proof coin would be Key Chained in silver.

    Don't think so either. :) But actually both the proof and the normal version are Cu-Ni pieces. If the coin looked silverish, it may have been due to the light, or maybe it was silver plated by some third party ...
