France 10 centimes Second Republic Pattern Rogat Maz-1358a SP 65 PCGS coin 1848

The France 10 Centimes Second Republic Pattern Rogat Maz-1358a SP65 PCGS Coin 1848 is a remarkable pattern issue created during the establishment of the French Second Republic, representing one of the alternative designs proposed for France's decimal coinage. Struck in metal with a beautiful Specimen finish and certified PCGS SP65, this rare pattern showcases the refined artistry of engraver D. Rogat. The obverse presents the left-facing allegorical bust of the French Republic wearing a distinctive Corinthian-style helmet with a high crest, flowing hair, and a classical profile inspired by ancient symbolism. A finely beaded border frames the elegant portrait, with the engraver’s signature positioned below the neck. The reverse features the denomination Dix Centimes and the date 1848, surrounded by an ornamental wreath composed of oak and olive branches tied together with a ribbon, symbolizing civic strength, peace, and the ideals of the new republic. Pattern coins of this type were struck in very limited quantities for evaluation before regular production, making them highly desirable among advanced collectors. With its exceptional SP65 certification, historical significance, and outstanding artistic execution, this Rogat pattern is a prestigious addition to any collection of French patterns or classic European numismatics.
