This is a trial piece for the Birr coinage authorized under Menelik II following his decisive defeat of the Italian army at Adwa in 1896 — a victory that forced Italy to recognize Ethiopian sovereignty and transformed Menelik into a figure of pan-African significance. The Paris Mint (Monnaie de Paris) struck the standard silver Birr series beginning in 1897, but bronze trials were produced to test die quality and striking parameters before committing to the silver production run.
Bronze off-metal trials from this series are rare survivors of the production approval process and were never released for circulation.
