Commentary
Frappe médaille. Ce jeton est l’un des jetons du mariage célébré à Fontainebleau le 5 septembre 1725.
L’histoire veut que le mariage fut consommé la nuit même, fait important eu égard au besoin d’héritier à l’origine du mariage.
Feuardent classe ce jeton à Fontainebleau.
Ce coin de droit est nettement plus rare que celui à N.R..
Medal strike. This token is one of the tokens from the marriage celebrated at Fontainebleau on September 5, 1725. History has it that the marriage was consummated that same night, an important fact given the need for an heir that was at the origin of the marriage. Feuardent classifies this token at Fontainebleau. This obverse die is significantly rarer than the one at NR

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.
