Commentary
Intéressante représentation d’un laminoir au revers (haut fourneau selon Feuardent, châssis de moulage selon Guilloteau et Mazard). Ce type est considéré comme une monnaie de confiance par Guilloteau, comme un essai de flan et de métal par Mazard. La fonderie de Maromme était chargée de fournir des flans à la Monnaie de Rouen. le style de ce jeton rappelle directement celui des tokens anglais de la même période.
Interesting representation of a rolling mill on the reverse (blast furnace according to Feuardent, casting frame according to Guilloteau and Mazard). This type is considered a trusted coin by Guilloteau, as a test of flan and metal by Mazard. The Maromme foundry was responsible for supplying flans to the Rouen Mint. The style of this token is directly reminiscent of that of English tokens of the same period.
