| Aanvullende informatie |
The February Revolution of 1848 overthrew Louis-Philippe and installed the Second Republic almost overnight, which left French monetary authorities scrambling to establish a new republican coinage. Pattern production in 1848 was prolific and competitive — private engravers and mint employees alike submitted proposals, and Moullé's tin submission was one of dozens that never advanced to official adoption. The Second Republic ultimately settled on designs by Barre, leaving Moullé's work a dead end.
Tin was an unusual choice for a pattern metal, suggesting this was a low-cost exploratory piece rather than a serious production proposal.
