Commentary
Ce type de revers est celui de l’ordinaire des Guerres de l’année 1667, étrange coïncidence sauf si le message est que les mariages entre puissances évitent les guerres !.
This type of setback is the usual one in the Wars of 1667, a strange coincidence unless the message is that marriages between powers avoid wars!

Historical background
LOVE AND MARRIAGE
It was customary in the past to give a treizain during the wedding mass. This treizain was blessed and signified entry into a community of property for the married couple. The treizain, which later became a medal or wedding token, was so called in honor of Jesus Christ and the twelve apostles. This practice continued until the first half of the 20th century. The reference work on the subject is the work of Jules Florange, Love and marriage in numismatics, Moulins, 1936 now replaced by that of Henri Térisse, La Numismatique du Mariage, Argenton-sur-Creuse 2008.
