Commentary
Cet exemplaire pèse 2 grammes, comme la 50 centimes Morlon qui sera émise dès 1931, et nous conduit à penser que les essais de frappe et de flans du type Morlon furent faits en utilisant les coins de Patey pour le Cameroun et le Togo.
This example weighs 2 grams, like the 50 centimes Morlon which was issued from 1931, and leads us to believe that the Morlon type coinage and blank tests were carried out using Patey dies for Cameroon and Togo.
