Commentary

On reste perplexe à cherche de comprendre ce qui a fait refrapper, en 1860 un jeton à l’effigie de Louis XVIII ?
Une ordonnance prescrivit sous Louis XVIII que les avocats à la Cour Suprême, assistant par délégation à une audience pleinière, auraient droit à un jeton valant 5 francs.
We remain perplexed as we try to understand what led to the re-minting, in 1860, of a token bearing the image of Louis XVIII? An ordinance prescribed under Louis XVIII that lawyers at the Supreme Court, attending a plenary hearing by delegation, would be entitled to a token worth 5 francs.
