Commentary
Il s’agit probablement ici d’une épreuve de la médaille de Jean-Baptiste Serpieri pour le 25e anniversaire de la fondation du Laurium gravé par Georges Lemaire. A noter que le test semble avoir été réalisé sur une médaille présentant Jeanne d’Arc dans un médaillon quadrilobé à l’intérieur.
This is probably a proof of Jean-Baptiste Serpieri's medal for the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Laurium engraved by Georges Lemaire. Note that the test seems to have been carried out on a medal showing Joan of Arc in a quadrilobed medallion inside
