Commentary
Jeton pour Antoine de Vienne (1538-1590), fils de François de Vienne (1515-1552) et de Gillette de Luxembourg (petite fille d'Agnès Sorel, maîtresse du roi Charles VII) et petit-fils de Girard de Vienne, seigneur de Pymont, et de Bénigne de Dinteville. Antoine est né le 27 janvier 1538 à Dijon et décédé en 1590. Chevalier des ordres du roi, il sera l'un de ceux qui éviteront le massacre de la Saint Barthélémy à Dijon. Ayant reçu du roi la mission de transmettre l'ordre du massacre à la municipalité de Dijon, il retarda son voyage au maximum, en espérant un contrordre, qui fini par venir. Le roi Henri III érigea Commarin en Comté en remerciement, à son profit (le château de Commarin existe toujours et se visite, à 40 km à l’ouest de Dijon).

Antoine was born on January 27, 1538 in Dijon and died in 1590. A knight of the king's orders, he was one of those who prevented the Saint Bartholomew's Day massacre in Dijon. Having received the king's mission to transmit the order for the massacre to the municipality of Dijon, he delayed his journey as much as possible, hoping for a counter-order, which eventually came. King Henry III elevated Commarin to the status of County in gratitude, for his benefit (the castle of Commarin still exists and can be visited, 40 km west of Dijon).

Historical background
FRANCHE-COMTÉ - CHARLES V CALLED CHARLES QUINT
(25/09/1506-25/10/1555)
Charles V, known as Charles V, was born in Ghent on February 25, 1500 from the union of the Archduke Philippe le Beau and Jeanne la Folle. On the paternal side he was the grandson of Maximilian I of Habsburg and on the maternal side, grandson of the Catholic kings, Ferdinand and Isabella. He became ruler of the Netherlands when his father died in 1506, when he was only 6 years old. A period of regency was exercised by his aunt Margaret of Austria until his emancipation before the States General on January 5, 1515. On January 23, 1516, his maternal grandfather died and he acceded to the throne of Spain under the name of Charles I. After the death of Maximilian I, Charles was elected German Emperor on June 28, 1519, under the name of Charles V. This election was at the origin of a long conflict which opposed him to the King of France François I. Charles Quint abdicated on October 25, 1555 from his possessions in the Netherlands and then on January 16, 1556 from his Spanish possessions. He died on September 21, 1558 in the monastery of San Jeromino de Yuste.
