Commentary
Feuardent indique : “Hecquet, très pieux, fut un des solitaires de Port-Royal-des-Champs, et après son décanat, finit sa vie aux Carmélites de Saint-Jacques de Paris”. Feuardent indique qu’il s’agit peut-être d’une refrappe, alors que cet exemplaire semble bien être une frappe d’époque.
Feuardent states: “Hecquet, very pious, was one of the solitary monks of Port-Royal-des-Champs, and after his deanship, ended his life at the Carmelites of Saint-Jacques in Paris.” Feuardent indicates that this may be a re-strike, while this example seems to be a contemporary strike.
