Commentary


Il semble illogique que ce jeton ne porte pas de poinçon mais il est très possible qu’il soit en réalité frappé en Belgique, probablement à Bruxelles, ou pour la Belgique, donc pour l’export. En effet, le type au buste janiforme se trouve avec les Bains de Caroline ainsi que le jeton de Monsieur Victor de Swarte. Nous avons supposé que l’animal dans le champ droit est une taupe par association d’idée avec la Fortune aveuglée.
It seems illogical that this token does not bear a hallmark, but it is very possible that it was actually struck in Belgium, probably in Brussels, or for Belgium, therefore for export. Indeed, the type with the janiform bust is found with the Baths of Caroline as well as the token of Mr. Victor de Swarte. We assumed that the animal in the right field is a mole by association of idea with Blinded Fortune

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.
