Monnaie de Paris

About

The Monnaie de Paris is a government-owned institution responsible for producing France's coins. Founded in AD 864 by King Charles the Bald with the Edict of Pistres, it is the oldest continuously running minting institution and one of the oldest extant companies in the world. In 1973, the mint relocated its primary production to a facility in Pessac, and today the original facility in Paris, while still operational, functions primarily as a museum and is home to a collection of many ancient coins. Monnaie de Paris acquired its autonomy and was granted legal personality by law no. 2006–1666 in 2007. In 2012, it was the first public institution to obtain the Living Heritage Company label. At the end of September 2017, Monnaie de Paris reopened after renovation work. Read more
