Commentary
Pour ce numéro de Jacqmin et après observation de nos exemplaires, nous distinguons quatre combinaisons de coins. Au droit, coins A (normal) et B (E de fortune peu visible) ; au revers, coins 1 (normal) et 2 (boursouflure sur le listel dans le coin à 10 heures, rouille ?).
For this issue of Jacqmin and after observing our examples, we distinguish four die combinations. On the obverse, die A (normal) and B (e.g., barely visible makeshift E); on the reverse, die 1 (normal) and 2 (swelling on the rim in the 10 o'clock corner, rust?)

Historical background
BANQUE DE FRANCE
(creation of January 18, 1800)
The Banque de France was created on January 18, 1800 as a partnership limited by shares, with merchants and bankers and with the support of Bonaparte. Its purpose was to restore confidence in the coin to promote economic recovery. It issues notes payable at sight and to bearer in return for the discount on commercial paper in Paris. In 1803, it obtained the exclusive privilege of issuing banknotes. A governor has run it since 1806. Since 1808, it has had branches. It was reorganized in 1936 with a General Assembly and then in 1945, it was nationalized. It has been part of the European System of Central Banks since 1999..
