Commentary


Claude Antoine Mercié, né à Gray et mort à Lyon en 1812 fut l'un des fondateurs de la "Société des Artistes Réunis" qui réalisa à Lyon les frappes révolutionnaires en métal de cloche. Cette frappe en double épaisseur est certainement une "restitution" du second Empire à la mode des restitutions de monnaies d'empereurs romains par leurs successeurs. Cette frappe au poinçon corne est certainement la dernière.
Claude Antoine Mercié, born in Gray and died in Lyon in 1812, was one of the founders of the \\\"Société des Artistes Réunis\\\" which carried out the revolutionary strikes in bell metal in Lyon. This double-thickness strike is certainly a \\\"restitution\\\" of the Second Empire in the fashion of restitutions of coins of Roman emperors by their successors. This strike with a horn punch is certainly the last
