Can anyone add information to explain the weight difference between these two versions of the 5 Francs?

Is it the thickness? It can`t be the silver content only.

Piedforts are struck on thicker planchets than normal, so yes, your guess is correct.

Try asking maudry, the picture credit is to him so he should be able to tell you.

Piedforts are really really thick, I think at least 1 or two centimeters in thickness

Piedforts are usually double the thickness of the normal coins

Apuking the normal piedfort is twice the thickness of an issued coin.

I like the edge work on these 5 Francs (the regular one).
