Commentary
Feuardent n’indique pas la présence d’étoiles. Cet exemplaire serait une copie sedanaise d’un jeton de la corporation des vignerons, gravé à l’origine par Nicolas Briot et daté de 1615 (Henri de La Tour le référence en 27 millimètres avec des rosettes en ponctuation).
Feuardent does not indicate the presence of stars. This example would be a Sedan copy of a token of the winegrowers' corporation, originally engraved by Nicolas Briot and dated 1615 (Henri de La Tour references it as 27 millimeters with rosettes as punctuation)

Historical background
ARDENNES - JETONS FACTORY IN SEDAN
(1614-1642)
A factory of banal tokens exists in Sedan from the years 1613-1614. It was entrusted to Daniel Goffin, a Protestant engraver based in Givonne near Sedan. The tokens produced are imitations of royal tokens and are made using mechanical tools with which the Principality of Sedan is equipped. A five-pointed star is found as a different on many of these tokens. This workshop probably closed with the abandonment of the principality to France in 1642. Note, a study by Jules Rouyer on a French-looking token factory in Sedan at the time of Louis XIII, Revue numismatique, 1887.
