Commentary
Belle Épreuve. Le prix d’émission de cette pièce commémorative était d’environ 650 euros. Avec écrin d’origine en similicuir vert et certificat de la Monnaie de Paris n° 150. Le chiffre de fabrication de 2.000 exemplaires est certainement très supérieur au nombre réel d’exemplaires vendus, actuellement non publié.
