Commentary


Signature de part et d’autre de la pointe de l’écu, coins variés notamment la forme des rosettes est différente au revers. La légende "VADE AD FORMICAM, O PIGER..." "Regarde la fourmi, Ô paresseux..." provient du livre des proverbes de la Bible qui continue par "observe son comportement et apprends d'elle la sagesse". La fin de la phrase n’est plus reprise à partir de 1854 .
Les caisses d'épargne, imaginées au XVIIIe siècle, sont nées au XIXe siècle avec la Révolution industrielle et à la suite d'idées généreuses de protection de l'épargne des salariés et de rendre les économies productives tout en les mettant au service de la Nation. La première caisse d'épargne et de prévoyance est créée à Paris en 1818 puis cet exemple est suivi en province entre 1819 et 1823 à Bordeaux, Rouen, Marseille, Nantes, Brest, Metz, Le Havre, Lyon, Troyes, Reims, etc.. Dans les années 1830-1834, cinquante et une nouvelles caisses d'épargne sont créées tandis qu'en 1835, une loi vient les organiser. De 1835 à 1845, deux cent soixante-trois nouvelles caisses apparaissent, privées ou municipales. En 1870, le territoire compte cinq cent vingt-cinq caisses dont sept hors métropole. Les jetons et médailles des caisses d'épargne servent comme jetons de présence.
Signature on both sides of the tip of the shield, varied corners, notably the shape of the rosettes is different on the reverse. The legend “VADE AD FORMICAM, O PIGER. . . \\\"Look at the ant, O lazy one. . . \\\" comes from the book of Proverbs in the Bible which continues, \\\"observe her behavior and learn wisdom from her.\\\". The end of the sentence is no longer repeated from 1854 .
Savings banks, imagined in the 18th century, were born in the 19th century with the Industrial Revolution and following generous ideas of protecting employees' savings and making economies productive while putting them at the service of the Nation.. The first savings and provident fund was created in Paris in 1818 and this example was followed in the provinces between 1819 and 1823 in Bordeaux, Rouen, Marseille, Nantes, Brest, Metz, Le Havre, Lyon, Troyes, Reims, etc.. .
