Indeed, also in De Mey (1982) it is listed as "Non retrouvé" (which means not found yet), but there is a mintage of 68.968 pieces.

Usually these don't sell for much more than other dates because the focus isn't that intense on the dates, than with modern coins. A rare type coin is something else, then the premiums are significant, but date or mint not so much.

Still a great find.
