Comment
Without the word "TRIAL". Considered as a piéfort, but this coin weighs only 50% more than the normal weight. Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Centimes Daniel-Dupuis (Piéfort en bronze) 1898 from France made of Bronze weighing 15 g is a rare and unique coin, with only 500 pieces minted. It was designed by French engraver and medalist, Daniel-Dupuis, and features a portrait of a young woman representing the Republic of France on one side, and the French national motto "Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité" on the other. The coin's rarity and historical significance make it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
