Hello
I just joined this forum
I have a 5 francs silver coin Louis Ph 1831 W
The text on the edge "DIEU PROTEGE LA FRANCE" (poor god, he does not deserve such a difficult job) is set on B position (can be read with head up) which is rather uncommon
and
there is a mistake in the text, no space between PROTEGE and LA, and the text appears as 'PROTEGELA"
The conjunction of these 2 mistakes occurring on a single mintage seems to be, statistically, of the highest rarity, unless it was made on purpose
The B position for this coin is known but I havn't found the number of coins which has been minted that way
As far as the punching mistake on the edge is concerned, I havn't found anything on the subject
Would appreciate ur help
Thx
