Commentary
Au droit, l’écu est parti de France et d’Este-Ferrare (écartelé, au 1 et 4 d’Empire ; au 2 de Grand gonfalonier du pape ; au 3 de Ferrare ; Este sur le tout). Renée de France est la seconde fille de Louis XII et d'Anne de Bretagne, née à Blois le 25 Octobre 1510. Douée intellectuellement, elle reçoit de surcroît une bonne éducation. Son charme lui vaut d’être recherchée par Charles d’Autriche (futur Charles Quint) puis Henri VIII. Elle épouse toutefois Hercule d’Este en 1528 qui meurt en 1559, elle vient alors se fixer à Montargis, où elle resta jusqu'à sa mort. Sa dot était fixée à 250.000 écus d'or, garantie, en cas de non paiement, par les duchés de Chartres, Gisors et Vernon auquel s’adjoignit par la suite Montargis. Elle mourut le 12 juin 1575.
On the obverse, the shield is from France and Este-Ferrara (quartered, 1 and 4 Empire; 2 Grand Gonfalonier of the Pope; 3 Ferrara; Este over all). Renée de France is the second daughter of Louis XII and Anne of Brittany, born in Blois on October 25, 1510. Intellectually gifted, she also received a good education. Her charm earned her the favor of Charles of Austria (future Charles V) and then Henry VIII. However, she married Hercule d'Este in 1528 who died in 1559, she then came to settle in Montargis, where she remained until her death. Her dowry was set at 250,000 gold écus, guaranteed, in the event of non-payment, by the duchies of Chartres, Gisors and Vernon to which Montargis was later added. She died on June 12, 1575
