The 2022 France Excellence The Louvre 22.2g Silver Coin is a stunning numismatic piece crafted to perfection, celebrating two significant milestones in Egyptology: the 200th anniversary of the deciphering of hieroglyphs and the 100th anniversary of the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb. This exquisite silver coin, meticulously shaped like the Great Sphinx of Tanis, is a faithful reproduction of the iconic statue housed in the Louvre Museum. The inscription '1822-2022' on the coin marks these historical anniversaries, adding a layer of historical significance to its aesthetic appeal.

Produced by Monnaie de Paris in collaboration with the Louvre Museum, this coin is part of an exceptional collection dedicated to the Treasures of Egypt. Struck in proof quality with 99.9% pure silver, the coin features frosted details that stand out against mirror-like fields, enhancing its intricate design. The coin has a limited mintage of only 5,000 pieces, making it a rare collector's item.

The reverse side of the coin showcases a case that once belonged to the worshipper Shepenupet, depicting the god Amun watching over the young Tutankhamun. The design is complemented by the depiction of the Louvre's glass pyramid in the background, along with the cartouches of Tutankhamun, creating a seamless blend of French and Egyptian cultural heritage.

On the obverse, the coin continues to depict the god Amun overseeing Tutankhamun, surrounded by ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics. The obverse also bears the coin's face value of '10 EURO,' reinforcing its status as legal tender while celebrating the rich history and artistry of ancient Egypt. This silver coin is not only a tribute to Egyptology but also a masterpiece of modern minting, making it a prized addition to any collection.
