[QUOTE="chrisild, post: 38934, member: 39"]Do you really? :-) The Sower on the French coins has been modified a little, or more than a little, in the past couple of years. Look at this coin (a half franc piece) for example, with Roty's "original" design ... [url]http://boutique.monnaiedeparis.fr/images/francs/g50cf.jpg[/url] ... compare it to the somewhat simplified version on the 2 francs coin ... [url]http://boutique.monnaiedeparis.fr/images/francs/g2ff.jpg[/url] ... and then have a look at the new semeuse: [url]http://boutique.monnaiedeparis.fr/images/euro/Fr50c.jpg[/url] Nevertheless, that set is nice, and the price seems fine to me :-) Christian[/QUOTE]
