Opschrift voorzijde CHAMBRE DE COMMERCE DE DIJON 10 CENTIMES O. YENCESSE 19 18
Beschrijving keerzijde A decorative arrangement of vine leaves and three clusters of grapes occupies the central field, evoking the celebrated viticulture of the Burgundy region. The design is enclosed within an inner beaded border (grenetis), with the surrounding Latin legend GENEROSI · BVRGVNDIAE · FRVCTVS · VIRIOVE — meaning 'noble fruits of Burgundy and its vine' — inscribed in the outer ring. The engraver's signature O. YENCESSE appears within the legend. The naturalistic rendering of the vines reflects the Art Nouveau sensibility of the medallist Ovide Yencesse.

Aanvullende informatie

French chambers of commerce were authorized to issue emergency token coinage during World War I after the near-total disappearance of small bronze and copper-nickel state coinage from circulation — hoarded, melted, or simply overwhelmed by wartime demand. Dijon's chamber struck aluminum and cardboard issues for general use; this silver striking was never intended to circulate.

Pattern strikes in silver from provincial French emergency issues are essentially presentation or trial pieces, produced in tiny numbers outside the official minting run. The absence of a Elie Morel reference number suggests it has not been firmly catalogued in the standard French necessity coinage literature.
