The Gold Franc was an incredibly popular coin series in 19th century Europe. The backbone of the Latin Monetary Union in the latter decades of the century, the modern Gold Franc was introduced by Napoleon Bonaparte as the Emperor of France during and after the French Revolution. Among the overlooked denominations in this series is the 40 Francs coin. Right now, Gold 40 Francs Swiss Coins are available to purchase from random years at Silver.com.

Each of the Gold 40 Francs Swiss Coins in this listing is provided to you at random by Silver.com. When you place an order, your coins are chosen at random following the processing of your payment. We make selections based upon availability in our warehouse at that time, and as a result, cannot guarantee you a specific design or date marks.

The Gold 40 Francs Swiss Coin is among the rarest of these 19th-century gold coins. When Napoleon reintroduced Gold Francs in 1803, several denominations were available. The 10, 20, and 100 Francs options became the most popular among users in the French Republic and greater Europe, resulting in fewer 40 Francs Gold Coins floating around today for investors and collectors to purchase.

On the obverse of Gold 40 Francs Coins, you’ll likely find the bust of a ruling king or emperor from France. The coins in the 40 Francs denomination were struck throughout France’s holdings in the early 19th century, and this included mints in Geneva, Switzerland. France invaded the famously neutral nation during the latter stages of its Revolutionary War and maintained control over Geneva until 1814.

The Gold 40 Francs Coins available at random through this listing could feature the bust of King Charles X. Reigning as King of France from 1824 to 1830, Charles was the younger brother of King Louis XVI and Louis XVIII.

Gold 40 Francs Coins have the crowned arms of France on the reverse. The image includes a shield with horizontal lines in the background and the image of three fleur-de-lis symbols upon this field. The face value of the coins is split on either side of the shield, which has a crown atop it.

Is my information secure?

We take data security very seriously. When you place an order with silver.com, your information is transmitted with the utmost SSL (secure socket layers) 256-bit protection. We also never have access to your credit/debit card details, as they are securely communicated directly to the payment processor (Authorize.net) and never retained by Silver.com. For this reason, we also don't process credit/debit card orders over the phone, as it is the least secure way to process those transactions.

In addition, all VISA and MasterCard orders undergo an additional step of user authentication - the respective Verified by VISA or MasterCard SecureCode programs. Upon completing checkout with a VISA or MasterCard credit/debit card, you may be promoted for additional details to confirm your identity and protect our customers against credit card fraud.

Finally, the data we do retain in our system, including but not limited to name, address, phone number, and order history, is never shared with or sold to any unrelated third-parties. Please review our Privacy Policy for full details on our data security measures.

Please note, the Silver.com website accepts orders 24/7/365, so you can always lock in live product prices and make purchases outside of business hours.

Do you charge sales tax?

We are required to collect sales tax in certain states. You can review your states sales tax policy here: https://www.silver.com/taxes. You should always consult with a tax adviser for specific advice in your area.

Where does your spot price come from?

We use a live, up-to-the-second spot price feed supplied by Xignite.com, a worldwide leader in the data supply market.

Are your products actually in stock?

Yes. We are one of the few bullion dealers in the industry who only deems products "in stock" when we have them on-hand and ready to ship immediately. In the instance of a presale item, we denote that the product is on presale and the estimated shipping date. While we make the best efforts to hit presale dates, the dates are only estimates, given we cannot control mint production issues and/or carrier dealyes.

Why are multiple prices listed?

We offer a 4% discount to "cash" paying customers - with paper check, bank wire, and bitcoin payments being defined as cash. On many products, we are also able to offer volume discounts to customers purchasing large quantities of the same item. All volume pricing is laid out in the chart on the product's description page, as well as in the cart.

When do I lock in my price?

All prices are locked in at the time of purchase. Credit/debit card, PayPal, BitCoin, Ethereum, and Ripple orders are paid at the time of checkout, while paper check and bank wire orders require a credit/debit card on file to lock in your pricing while we await your payment. Please note, paper check and bank wire orders will NOT result in a charge to your card - we simple maintain the card on file while we await full payment by your selected payment method.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently only ship to addresses in the United States, including APOs.
