"Oprócz tych 10 prób istnieje jedenasta mosiężna moneta próbna, której waga wynosi 12 uncji, chociaż w rzeczywistości odpowiada ona 5 uncjom, na rewersie legenda "BRASS TEST" została naniesiona ręcznie za pomocą stempli (ponieważ litery nie są wyrównane), trzecią cechą charakterystyczną jest to, że krawędź jest nieciągle prążkowana i podobnie jak oficjalne monety (srebrne, złote, platynowe) ma miejsce przygotowane do foliowania krawędzi, ale brakuje numeru. Jeśli chodzi o ten ostatni test, moneta była dystrybuowana w etui i ma lustrzane wykończenie".

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

“In addition to these 10 proofs there is an eleventh in brass, where it is stated to be 12 ounces, although in reality due to its weight it corresponds to 5 ounces, on the exergue of the reverse the legend “BRASS TEST” was applied with punches manually, (since the letters are not aligned), a third characteristic is that the edge is discontinuously striated and just like the official coinage (silver, gold, platinum) has the space prepared to foliate the edge, but it lacks the number. Regarding this last test, it was distributed in a case and has a mirror finish.”
