Second one is a lot heavier looks like. Over 4 grams compared to just over 1 gram for the first one. Don't speak French but seems to me that the second one is like a special edition. Just look at the mintage numbers for it. Only in the hundreds made each year.

"Silver Piedfort" - it is struck in silver and it is much thicker than an ordinary coin.

Is that steel 1 centime the first coin entered in the Numista catalog?
