Commentary
Le revers est du deuxième coin qui rajoute une étoile, signe d’incertitude, à la date de naissance et précise que le couronnement fut effectué par le pape.
Louis II dit le Bègue né le 1er novembre 846, mort le 11 avril 879 à Compiègne. Roi des Francs (877-879), fils de Charles II dit le Chauve et Ermentrude d'Orléans.
Le 10 février 856 à Louviers, son père lui arrange des fiançailles avec une fille d'Erispoë, roi de Bretagne auquel il concède alors le duché du Mans. Déplaisant énormément aux vassaux bretons, cet arrangement est peut-être une des raisons du mécontentement et du complot qui entraînent l'assassinat du roi breton l'année suivante.
Marié en premières noces en 862 à Ansgarde de Bourgogne, elle lui donne deux fils, Louis III et Carloman II et trois filles, Gisèle, Hildegarde et Ermentrude. Comme ce mariage avait été contracté sans la volonté de son père, ce dernier oblige Louis à répudier Ansgarde. Il épouse en secondes noces - contre l'avis des autorités ecclésiastiques - Adélaïde de Paris qui lui donne un fils, Charles, qui naît après sa mort.
Comme l'indique son surnom, Louis II bégaie, ce qui l'empêche de s'exprimer en public et nuit à son autorité.

The reverse is from the second corner which adds a star, a sign of uncertainty, to the date of birth and specifies that the coronation was carried out by the Pope..
Louis II, known as the Stammerer, born on November 1, 846, died on April 11, 879 in Compiègne. King of the Franks (877-879), son of Charles II, known as the Bald, and Ermentrude of Orléans.
On February 10, 856 in Louviers, his father arranged for him to betroth a daughter of Erispoë, King of Brittany, to whom he then granted the Duchy of Le Mans.. Extremely displeasing to the Breton vassals, this arrangement was perhaps one of the reasons for the discontent and the plot which led to the assassination of the Breton king the following year..
Married in first marriage in 862 to Ansgarde of Burgundy, she gave him two sons, Louis III and Carloman II and three daughters, Gisèle, Hildegarde and Ermentrude. As this marriage had been contracted without his father's will, the latter forced Louis to repudiate Ansgarde. He married for the second time - against the advice of the ecclesiastical authorities - Adelaide of Paris who gave him a son, Charles, who was born after his death..
As his nickname indicates, Louis II stuttered, which prevented him from speaking in public and damaged his authority..
