Conseil du Roi

in #history6 years ago

Here is a French token (counter) of cooper dedicated to the "Conseil du Roi" for the years 1640-45.

These brass or cooper tokens were not distributed to the employees of the administration but were sold as a manufactured product from the “Monnaie” . More expensive than the Nuremberg products they are less common.

On the obverse : LVD XIIII D G FR ET NAV REX CHRIST the young king Louis XIV
On the reverse : NIL NISI CONSILIO and the shield of France.

Jeton banal des ateliers de la Monnaie , reprenant la légende des jetons du "Conseil du Roi" il reprends aussi un coin utilisé pour les jetons du sacre.
