10 Euro Silver Coin - Modern Warfare - Men and Women in World War I - 2017
### Modern Warfare - Men and Women in World War I 10 Euro - 22,2 Gram Silver - Proof - Mintage only 5,000 pieces - With Certificate of Authenticity - Delivery in original Box Since 2014, the **Monnaie de Paris** has issued the series **"Modern Warfare"** to commemorate the **First World War**, as 2014 marked the 100th anniversary of its beginning. This issue deals with the link between the military and civilian worlds through aviation. The motive shows families watching the takeoff of military aircraft as an attraction. One of the planes is already in the air, while the SPAD of French fighter pilot Georges Guynemer (1894-1917) is about to take off. The scene continues on the reverse of the coin, where the SPAD can also be seen. Instead of the families, there is now a battlefield with tanks and a soldier of the U.S. infantry, a so-called "doughboy". The dates "1917" and "2017", the denomination and the inscription "LA GUERRE MODERNE" complete the design. The limited **commemorative coin** is delivered in the original box including a certificate of authenticity.
