---------- A few words about myself: I'm french, fortyish, and live in the south of France about thirty kilometers from Spanish border on the Mediterranean. I'm a police officer in the town of Le Barcares.

---------- My favorite pastime is collecting french coins. Because of my passion for policework, I also collect patches from police departments from all around the world. Perhaps you know someone in law enforcement who would like to trade their patch for a french one.

---------- My coin collectsion consists mainly of french coins minted from 1973 to 2001. I'm interested in trading or buying coins. I'll entertain any proposal, so email me and I will get back to you right away. All my doubles are for sale, so just ask! I also have stamps and phone cards if you collect those, so if you have any french coins, we could certainly do a trade.

---------- This site is organised along the following lines. You'll find two different menus, the first lets you navigate my site and the second the opened page.

---------- You'll find the following pages :

---------- I don't pretend to have the best looking site, but please tell me what you think of it : what you would change or what's missing. My guest book is on the home page.
---------- One last thing. This site is Spanish, English, German, and Italian and french. It goes without saying that I don't speak all these languages, and the translation was done by computer. So, if you are fluent in any of these languages, go to the language page, pick your country and do any corrections. That would be really great !

---------- Soon, I'll create a coin auction site. I'll let you know when it is up.

---------- In fine, i want to try to help you.
