I can not see why some one would fake a 1/2 frank. It does have other issues, like machine doubling.
machine doubling
Wt 4.54 g could it be a error coin?
your thoughts , thank you daryl

Me I think it is clogged die for the privy marks. But have never seen both privy marks gone. Something I have never seen before.
But it still does not look right to me.

It is not machine doubling, it is a 'recut' die.
Do not worry about the privy marks:

I also have a 1993 France 1/2 Franc with no marks ...
https://en.numista.com/forum/topic13756.html#p92400
which is third image down on that link; also is mine shown below from different angle.
I consider it a mint error; not a fake. It is on this page 'No mark' ...

Thank you , PetrusAscanus and Zac. I was very sleepy when I found it. It just looks odd. Well being sleepy caught me again.
