On the inner part of the coin there is an effigy of Princess Grace in profile facing to the left. ‘MONACO’, followed by the mint mark, the year ‘2007’ and the engraver's mark, is engraved in an arc in the bottom right of the inner part. The name of the artist (R.B.BARON) is engraved under the Princess's hair. The coin's outer ring depicts the twelve stars of the European flag.

Additional information

Corresponding to the 10 franc gold coin of Monaco of 1982, the commemorative coin shows the design of Roger Bernard Baron (1907-1994), the head of Princess Grace of Monaco facing to the left. Before her marriage to Prince Rainier III of Monaco in 1956, she was known as the American film actress Grace Kelly, and was then called Grace Patricia Grimaldi.
