History of the Artifact
Now available to you: authentic Napoleonic era silver coins featuring Napoleon’s iconic portrait on the obverse.
Napoleon is perhaps one of the most famous military generals ever with only the likes of Caesar, Alexander the Great and Gengis Khan coming anywhere close to his feats. Born on August 15, 1769 at Ajaccio, Corsica from minor nobility, Napoleon rose to fame during the French Revolution and after leading a series of successful military campaigns. With his amazing leadership and warfare skills, he won over the Italian Peninsula and became a national hero. In 1798, he led a military expedition to Egypt which was extremely successful. As his fame grew, together with his supporters Napoleon formed a new government called the Consulate and crowned himself emperor in 1804. After crowning himself as Emperor, Napoleon successfully waged war against various coalitions of European nations and expanded his empire. However, after a disastrous French invasion of Russia in 1812, Napoleon abdicated the throne two years later and was exiled to the island of Elba. In 1815, he briefly returned to power in his Hundred Days campaign. After a crushing defeat at the Battle of Waterloo, he abdicated once again and was exiled to the remote island of Saint Helena, where he died at 51.

The delivery took quite a while, but this has nothing to do with the saler. I am very happy with my purchase, having a real piece of history in my home is really cool. The little display case looks nice and sturdy.
Fast shipping came in great condition well package.
Coin is very beautiful. Five stars.
All perfect packaging and excellent delivery times. It was a real pleasure
The button arrived upside down in the display case so I had to open it up and fix it before gifting. Other than that everything was great! Neat gift.
Fast shipping, the coin came with COA and was exactly as pictured! Thank you!
Gorgeous object. However, I would have preferred more details in his description.
Comes with the little display case and everything advertised in the picture. Awesome store
Very cool coin! I bought it for my dad for Father’s Day and I know he’s going to love it.

I like the coin a lot, it is a very nice piece of history. Fits perfectly in to my collection. Delivery was on time and packaging very good. The case that it is in is just so nice it looks like in a museum. :)
Amazing! I love both the coins I got from here!! I can’t wait to give them to their recipients for Christmas!
The Coin and case is awesome! The only additional thing that could make it perfect would be a little description of what/who the coin faces represent and possibly where the specific coin was found. Otherwise very content
They were so helpful and patient with me I couldn’t be more grateful. They gave me such good service and such fast shipping I’m buying another coin when I get paid again!! I’m going to continue buying from these guys, it looks even better in person. It’s everything I was hoping for:) I’m obsessed with it it looks amazing in my collection:)
Great item with case. Carefully packaged. A great find!
