Commentary
Manque comme type à Feuardent. Nous avons dans le site ordonnances.org, à http://www.ordonnances.org/documents/1587.html la mise en ligne du Registre des ouvriers, monnoyers et taillaresses qui ont esté receuz et acueilliz en la Monnoye de Paris du serment de France (1587-1662) où nous trouvons, en date du 5 mars 1652 la réception de Clément Joseph, ouvrier.
On reste toujours stupéfait de la très mauvaise qualité de fabrication de ces jetons de monnayeur (celui-ci n’est même pas correctement axé) dont on se demande à quoi ils pouvaient bien servir, étant d’une qualité imprésentable : à faire les comptes de l’association des monnayeurs eux-mêmes ?.
Missing as a type in Feuardent. We have in the site ordonnances.org, at http://www.ordonnances.org/documents/1587.html the online posting of the Register of workers, mint-makers and cutters who were received and accepted in the Mint of Paris of the oath of France (1587-1662) where we find, dated March 5, 1652, the reception of Clément Joseph, worker. We are always amazed at the very poor quality of manufacture of these coiner's tokens (this one is not even correctly aligned) which makes us wonder what they could possibly be used for, being of an unpresentable quality: to do the accounts of the association of the mint-makers themselves?

Historical background
COUR DES MONNAIES DE PARIS
(1552-1791)
In the Middle Ages, the Chamber of coins, located in the Palace, in the same premises as the Chamber of Accounts, was responsible for monitoring mints.. In 1522, Francis I gave it the powers of a real court to judge cases relating to counterfeit coin.. In 1552, Henry II erected this Chamber into a sovereign court, better known as the Cour des coins de Paris. The Court of coins of Paris had, in addition to its judicial powers, a political function (remonstrances, drafting of certain edicts. . . ) and control over weights and measures (it kept in particular the so-called "Charlemagne" pile). From 1704 to 1771 it gave up part of its jurisdiction in favor of the Cour des coins de Lyon. The Paris coin Court was abolished in 1791, during the Revolution. The Provost General of coins was a company responsible for policing coins and enforcing the judgments of the Cour des coins in the 17th and 18th centuries.. At its head, the provost general of the coins was an officer established to know the crimes of counterfeit coin and to instruct summarily the trials of counterfeit coin, the proceedings of which were then presented to the Court of the coins.
