Commentary


Le plus intéressant est qu’il a été fabriqué exactement aux mesures d’une 10 centimes Union Latine standard, module que les Suisses n’ont jamais adopté, restant sur un diamètre plus petit et en métal blanc. On ne peut d’ailleurs s’empêcher de penser, en le regardant, aux essais de 10 centimes du concours de 1848 en France.
The most interesting thing is that it was made exactly to the measurements of a standard 10 centime Union Latine, a module that the Swiss never adopted, remaining on a smaller diameter and in white metal. One cannot help but think, when looking at it, of the 10 centime tests of the 1848 competition in France
