Numismatic shop in Paris

I am going to Paris in the beginning of December.
Anyone knows a good numismatic shop in Paris?
I am looking for some specific commemorative coins from France.

The CGB-CGF is at 36 rue Vivienne; they are the authors of the "Le Franc" books and have an extensive catalog of offerings. They have just about everything you could desire. They are somewhat expensive, but there is always room for negotiations.

The only one that I can recommend is CGB-CGF at 36 rue Vivienne. However, it will be fun exploring the others.

BTW: Post this in the French section, even with google.translate you'll get great results!

When I lived in Paris, I have used 3 areas:
- the steets around "La Bourse" (the old sock exchange has/had a dozen of shops specializing in coins (just behind Les Halles).
- there were about 3 shops, concentrated on Montparnasse, next to each other, close to Tour Montparnasse.
- for cheaper finds go to the flea market at Clignancourt;

- But if you look for mint issues, just go to the mint: http://www.monnaiedeparis.fr/ 7 minutes walk from the Notre Dame. They have everything they have minted recently; although the staff is very arrogant.

Good luck!
