AROUND THE WORD IN 80 DAYS Jules Verne 22,2g Proof Silver Coin 10€ France 2025
In 2021, Monnaie de Paris inaugurated a series focused on literary styles and authors who have marked literature history in France and abroad. After celebrating poetry in 2021, theatre in 2022 and adventure novels in 2024, Monnaie de Paris honours a science fiction author in 2025: Jules Verne, for the 120th anniversary of his passing. On the obverse, Phileas Fogg is in the foreground in his hot-air balloon, accompanied by Jean Passepartout, his faithful French valet, and Mrs Aouda, the young widow he saved. A number of elements help place the work in context, notably Big Ben, symbolising the point of departure and arrival of this adventure. The watch at the top illustrates the urgent nature of the journey, emphasising that Phileas Fogg is in a race against time to win his wager. The author's name, the title Le tour du monde en 80 jours and the yeardate can be found around the edge of the coin. The reverse side is common to the entire Art of the Quill series. Several iconic quotations can be read, such as Voltaire’s “Le mieux est l’ennemi du bien”, Dante Alighieri’s “Lasciate ogne speranza voi ch'intrate ”, William Shakespeare’s “To be or not to be: that is the question” or Nietzsche’s “Was mich nicht umbringt, macht mich starker”. A feather is engraved in the center of the coin and underneath is the title of the series. The acronym RF appears in the lower part of the coin, along with the hallmark of Joaquin Jimenez and the engraving workshop.
