“People have forgotten this truth,” the fox said. “But you mustn’t forget it. You become responsible forever for what you’ve tamed. You are responsible for your rose.” - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, “The Little Prince”
 
Time engenders Love; love leads to responsibility.
 
The Little Prince Coins are 9 in total, produced by the Monnaie de Paris. The coins feature the Little Prince’s tour in Paris, so we are meant to follow, in the interior of the box, his footprints covering 9 iconic places in Paris. The front cover has the Little Prince on his planet accompanied by some well-known Parisian monuments, e.g. The Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame de Paris, The July Column. While on the back cover, there are characters of the novel: the Lamplighter, the King, the Little Prince on his planet, and the mythical Baobab tree.
 
Founded in 864, the Monnaie de Paris’s role is to mint coins for France. It is not only the oldest French institution, but also the oldest company in the world.
