Aanvullende informatie

Essai pieces from the 1948 French monetary reorganization were produced by the Monnaie de Paris as trial strikes submitted for official approval as France rebuilt its coinage infrastructure following wartime disruption and occupation-era monetary chaos. This particular type was not adopted for circulation, leaving surviving examples confined almost entirely to institutional collections and the small number distributed to approved numismatic subscribers — the standard distribution channel for French essais of this period.
