25$ Eiffel Tower - Mother of Pearl

Another beautiful coin in the "Mother of Pearl" series.

The Eiffel Tower is Paris' most famous architectural landmark, considered a symbol of the city and sometimes of all of France. It is the tallest building in Paris and, at the time of its construction, was the tallest building in the world.

The tower was built specifically for the Paris World Exposition in 1889. It was intended to commemorate the centenary of the French Revolution and to demonstrate the level of engineering expertise and technical capability of the era, to be a symbol of France's economic and scientific and technological power at the time.

The reverse of the coin is decorated with a mother of pearl insert depicting the Eiffel Tower. It comes in an elegant box with a certificate of authenticity. The mintage is limited to 750 pieces.
