This 5 francs thus pairs the portrait of Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte, engraved by Barre, with the legend REPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE. Exactly one year after the coup, on 2 December 1852, the Empire was proclaimed, and the same portrait would become that of Napoleon III.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hugo Taittinger Numismatics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59115053351243,"sku":"A718.42","price":17913.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0976\/0345\/3259\/files\/Captured_ecran2026-11-03a14.25.49.png?v=1793712365","url":"https:\/\/taittingernumismatics.com\/en-ea\/products\/france-louis-napoleon-bonaparte-5-francs-narrow-head-1852-paris-ngc-ms65","provider":"Hugo Taittinger Numismatics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
