Comments

There is a second example with the face value written in numerals. These other examples have a bust that does not protrude beyond the circle, while those with the face value written in letters have a bust on the obverse that does not remain within the circle. There's also a slight difference in weight, with the examples with the face value in letters slightly lighter than those with the face value in figures. Unlike the 5-centime test pieces, the diameter never changes.Automatically translated
