Commentary
S'il est probable, par élimination, que le personnage du revers est effectivement ce que le graveur pouvait imaginer comme étant un rabbin, le lien avec la Chambre aux Deniers reste à faire.
While it is likely, by process of elimination, that the character on the reverse is indeed what the engraver could have imagined as a rabbi, the link with the Chamber of Coins remains to be made.

The Chambre aux deniers is "a kind of Accounting Chamber established for the personal expenses of the king or rather of the Hôtel du roi" (Charles Préau, Study on the Chambre aux deniers du roi du XIIe au XVIe siècle). It is also called "chambre aux deniers de l'hôtel" and has been established regularly since the reign of Saint Louis. The expenses of the offices, Bakery, Échansonnerie, Kitchen, Fruiterie, Stable and Pound, are regulated by the Chamber of the deniers which was made deliver funds by the Chamber of the Treasury.
