The famous French Gold Rooster
Thank the smart guy who first jeered the Gauls with "gallus" - the latin word for rooster.
Because that early trash-talking enemy´s clevermedieval insult actualli became centuries-old symbol of France´s revolutionary fighting spirit -and a magnificent legal tender gold coin respected and treasured the world over!
Struck between 1899 and 1914, it's one of the most beautiful gold coins ever minted. The Gold Rooster shows France's version of Miss Liberty on one side and the famous French crowing rooster on the other. Most were later melted to help pay for the I World War - and those remaining played a role in the II World War as well.
