Commentary
Pierre-Jean-Baptiste Chomel est né à Paris en 1671. Docteur en 1697, il devient professeur de pharmacie et de matière médicale puis médecin du roi par quartier en 1706. Apprécié pour son savoir botanique, il est l’auteur d’un “Abrégé de l’Histoire des plantes usuelles” en trois volumes et qui eut neuf éditions. Son jardin, rue de l’Arbalète, est à l’origine de l’École de pharmacie. Doyen élu et réélu, il poursuit ardemment la lutte contre les chirurgiens et apothicaires et fait préparer les plans du nouvel amphithéâtre. Il meurt en juillet 1740 avant la fin de son second décanat.
Fournié indique dans les notes du N°63 qu'il existe une version de ce jeton, exécutée par la famille en 1824. Nous présentons ici cette nouvelle gravure qui se caractérise par le remplacement - suite à une erreur du graveur - des chardons par des coquilles. Il faut noter que c'est seulement cette version que Fournié a pu illustrer sur ses planches .

Appreciated for his botanical knowledge, he is the author of an “Abrégé de l'Histoire des plantes usuelles” in three volumes and which had nine editions. His garden, rue de l'Arbalète, is at the origin of the School of Pharmacy. Elected and re-elected dean, he ardently pursued the fight against surgeons and apothecaries and had the plans for the new amphitheater prepared. He died in July 1740 before the end of his second deanship. Fournié indicates in the notes of No. 63 that there is a version of this token, executed by the family in 1824. We present here this new engraving which is characterized by the replacement - following an error of the engraver - of thistles by shells. It should be noted that it is only this version that Fournié was able to illustrate on his plates
