Unlisted variety - French 10 centimes 1941 KM# 897

8 αναρτήσεις
There are several varieties of this issue, dependent on whether the "mes" in Centimes is underlined and if there is a dot on each side of the date. My coin is the KM# 897, i.e. with dots and "mes" underlined.

There is a variety with a single dot after the date, however mine has one dot BEFORE the date. Below is my poor attempt at capturing their image. I'm far better at beer pong than photography but it's good enough to show you what I'm talking about.

I've looked everywhere for a reference to this variety but found nothing. Many of the sites were in French and as I speak French like Del Boy it's possible I missed something. Do any of our Francophone members have any information on this variety?

Would any French collectors be interested in this coin? It's right around the VF mark which is to say exceptionally well preserved for a zinc coin.

Non illegitimis carborundum est.  Excellent advice for all coins.

Upon closer inspection, I can safely say that this is not a type or variety. There is a very slight and gentle hump where the "after" dot should be. Most likely, this was caused by heavy polishing of the die in this spot. It is possible, that for the same reason, the first 1 in the date (1941) appears to be narrower/thinner than the second 1.
