Commentary
Le revers de ce jeton existe avec la date 1720 mais le buste du droit n’est pas utilisé avant 1754. On ne sait donc guère comment dater ce jeton qui est sans nul doute postérieur à 1754.
The reverse of this token exists with the date 1720 but the bust on the obverse was not used before 1754. We therefore hardly know how to date this token which is undoubtedly later than 1754.

Historical background
BÂTIMENTS DU ROI
Under the Ancien Régime, the administration of the King's Buildings, dependent on the department of the House of the King, was mainly responsible for works ordered by the sovereign, in his residences in Paris or the surrounding area. There is an excellent article on wikipedia at http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%A2timents_du_Roi.
