I tell thee for why, a variety of the 1941 VINGHT centimes in Zinc exist with large spacing in the reeding.

see listing "F.153/3"

http://www.lefranc.net/monnaie,20-centimes-tat-fran-ais,153.html

today I found .1941. 10 Centimes in Zinc with big gaps in the reeding unlike all the other examples I have.

I cant find any information on this type other than a variety with "average" spacing..!!

What ever that means..!

Is it possible "F.140/4" is the 10 centimes with large reeding??

any info would be great.

thanks.

The last coin in the list " F.140/4"

Le Franc IX (2012) gives:-

F.140/1 1941 Cmes NOT underlined

F.140/2 1941 Cmes underlined

F.140/3 .1941. Cmes underlined

F.140/4 .1941. Cmes NOT underlined (two examples known)

No variation in edge reeding noted for the 4 types, but an irregular minting with weights varying between 2.35g to 2.86g, total mintage was 235,875,200 so scope for lots of variations given wartime conditions methinks

Warning also to beware filled dies and weak strikes, so diffcult to know given the awful condition most of these zinc coins are normally found in

ah I see thankyou,

maybe im confused as to what "Tranche : cannelures fines" actually means.

for example;

the last line in the coin specifications in the link below states;

Tranche : cannelures fines

http://www.cgb.fr/10-centimes-lindauer-en-zinc-cmes-souligne-et-millesime-avec-points-1941-f-140-3,fmd_078603,a.html

And this coin is listed with "Tranche : cannelures moyenne"

http://www.cgb.fr/10-centimes-lindauer-en-zinc-cmes-souligne-et-millesime-avec-points-1941-f-140-3,fmd_078604,a.html

Both coins have the underlining and the points and are made from Zinc.

I knew existed the 1941 VINGHT centimes with the larger reeded edge. Then noticed this. Il get those comparisson images uploaded.
