Commentary


13.450 pièces ont été frappées à Cassel en 1808. Celles qui sont en "frappe médaille" auraient été fabriquées à Cassel et ont l'orientation des coins à 12 heures comme c'est le cas de cette 20 Franken. Celles qui sont en "frappe monnaie" auraient été frappées à Paris et elles ont alors l'orientation des coins à 6 heures.
13,450 coins were minted in Kassel in 1808. Those in \\\"medal strike\\\" would have been made in Kassel and have the die orientation at 12 o'clock as is the case with this 20 Franken. Those in \\\"coin strike\\\" would have been minted in Paris and then have the die orientation at 6 o'clock

Historical background


GERMANY - KINGDOM OF WESTPHALIA - JÉRÔME NAPOLÉON

(8/12/1807-26/12/1813)

Jérôme, Napoleon's younger brother, was born on November 15, 1784. The kingdom of Westphalia was tailor-made for him with the remains of Hanover, Brunswick and Hesse-Cassel. On August 22, 1807, Jérôme married Catherine of Württemberg then was named King of Westphalia on December 8, 1807. In 1813, after Leipzig, Jérôme had to abandon his States, which were dismembered. After the Battle of Waterloo, he lived in exile until 1848. Under the Second Empire, Marshal of France, he was President of the Senate and Governor of the Invalides before dying in 1860.
