Commentary
Selon Monsieur Terisse, “cet exemplaire ressemble à l’essai du denier tournois de Lyon (1586) d’Henri III (Lafaurie n°999), au denier tournois à la croisette de François Ier (Lafaurie 793) dont on peut reprendre une partie de la description”.
Historical background
LOVE AND MARRIAGE
It was customary in the past to give a treizain during the wedding mass. This treizain was blessed and signified entry into a community of property for the married couple. The treizain, which later became a medal or wedding token, was so called in honor of Jesus Christ and the twelve apostles. This practice continued until the first half of the 20th century. The reference work on the subject is the work of Jules Florange, Love and marriage in numismatics, Moulins, 1936 now replaced by that of Henri Térisse, La Numismatique du Mariage, Argenton-sur-Creuse 2008.
