A detailed silver coin features Marianne holding a torch and olive branch in front of a globe, with inscriptions around the rim.

A highly detailed silver coin in the style of the East India Company Modern Trade Dollar series. Centered on the reverse is a large, polished globe with France highlighted in frosted relief. The national allegory Marianne stands gracefully in front of the globe, wearing her Phrygian cap and holding a torch of liberty in one hand and an olive branch in the other. Her robes flow elegantly, echoing the classical style used for Britannia and Lady Liberty. Around the outer rim, include intricate radial linework and fine milling like the 2021–2023 modern trade dollars. Add the inscriptions: “MODERN FRENCH TRADE DOLLAR”, “1 OZ .999 SILVER”, and “EAST INDIA COMPANY • SAINT HELENA”. Make the engraving crisp, realistic, and consistent with the USA, UK, China, and Japan modern trade dollar designs. Use high contrast between frosted and mirrored surfaces, with strong coin-like metallic texture. Hyper-detailed, elegant, balanced composition. See more
