Commentary
Cet exemplaire est visiblement frappé sur un flan de 20 centimes Marianne, le poids de notre exemplaire ne laisse aucun doute à ce sujet. Apparemment, un flan de 20 centimes s’est glissé par erreur au milieu des flans de 50 centimes et a été monnayé. Ce qui est le plus étonnant est qu’une telle erreur ait pu échapper aux contrôles et soit partie dans la circulation.
This example is clearly struck on a 20-cent Marianne flan; the weight of our example leaves no doubt about this. Apparently, a 20-cent flan was mistakenly placed among the 50-cent flans and was minted. What is most surprising is that such an error could have escaped inspection and entered circulation.
