| Aanvullende informatie |
Essais en carton — trial pieces struck on cardboard blanks — were produced by the Monnaie de Paris as a low-cost method of evaluating proposed designs before committing to metal dies and full production runs. Merley's second type for this denomination never advanced beyond the trial stage, leaving these cardboard strikes as the only physical record of a design the French treasury ultimately rejected.
