Commentary
Ce jeton date du tout début des années 1720 car un autre jeton des écuries du roi existe avec, au droit, un buste de type GP.530 datant 1723.
This token dates from the very beginning of the 1720s because another token from the king's stables exists with, on the obverse, a bust of type GP.530 dating from 1723

Historical background
MAISON DU ROI - GREAT STABLES
The term stable appears in the 16th century as a place used to house the squires and the horses for which they were responsible. The King's Stables were under the responsibility of the Grand Esquire and led by a Governor of the Pages or Esquire. Since 1550, to become a page in the Great Stable of the King, it was necessary to be noble, to be around 15 years old, to be well made and known to have good morals.
