The 100 Days of Napoleon, a brief yet monumental chapter in European history, is a captivating story for history enthusiasts, coin collectors, and auction buyers alike. Beginning with Napoleon Bonaparte’s daring escape from exile on Elba in 1815, this period saw his triumphant march through France, reclaiming power as emperor before his defeat at the Battle of Waterloo. During this time, coins minted under Napoleon’s reign not only served as currency but also as powerful symbols of his imperial ambition and propaganda. Recently, we had the privilege of viewing coins from this fascinating era as part of the Richard Margolis Collection, currently being auctioned by Stack’s Bowers. These coins, including rare countermarked pieces and those reflecting the turbulent political climate, offer a tangible connection to one of history’s most studied figures. For collectors and history buffs, acquiring one of these artifacts is a unique opportunity to hold a piece of history in your hands-Napoleon’s last stand preserved in numismatic form.
