| Additional information |
Piéforts from the Monnaie de Paris in this period were produced almost exclusively for presentation and archival purposes — struck at double or greater thickness on polished or specially prepared planchets, then distributed to ministry officials, foreign dignitaries, and institutional collections rather than released commercially. The 1928 Semeuse piéfort in silver sits in a relatively small production window for such pieces; the Monnaie de Paris had not yet formalized the collector piéfort programs that would emerge more systematically after mid-century.
GEM 94.P2 confirms the catalogued reference, placing it firmly within the documented piéfort sequence for this denomination.
