Commentary


Ce jeton fut frappé pour les ouvriers et monnayeurs de la Monnaie de Paris. Le terme "ouvriers" se réfère aux ajusteurs (tailleresses pour les femmes), personnel chargé de l'ajustage des flans. Les monnayeurs étaient chargés des opérations de frappe, soit au marteau, soit au balancier. Ces charges, qui se transmettaient aux enfants "de ligne et d'estoc", étaient prisées par les nombreuses exemptions qu'elles garantissaient (impôt limités, dispense de logement de gens de guerre...). Ce jeton est daté du règne de Louis XIII car son revers est très proche des jetons de ce roi frappés en 1616 (Feuardent n° 2182 et 2193).
This token was struck for the workers and mintmasters of the Paris Mint. The term \\\"workers\\\" refers to the adjusters (tailleresses for women), personnel responsible for adjusting the blanks. The mintmasters were responsible for striking operations, either with a hammer or a balance. These positions, which were passed on to the children \\\"of the line and of the thrust\\\", were prized for the numerous exemptions they guaranteed (limited taxes, exemption from housing for soldiers, etc.). This token is dated to the reign of Louis XIII because its reverse is very similar to the tokens of this king struck in 1616 (Feuardent n° 2182 and 2193)

Historical background


MONNAIE DE PARIS

(16th-18th centuries)

The Monnaie de Paris was located in the 17th century on the site of the current Samaritaine. The issuing bank was formed from the agglomeration of small plots and medieval houses which gave this establishment a heterogeneous appearance. Not far from its location, behind the Saint-Germain-l'Auxerrois church, is still the rue de l'Arbre sec, recalling that a gallows had been established there to punish in particular some counterfeiters. The few plans from the 18th century show us a succession of small rooms, of different sizes and located on different levels, some of them vacant because they had suffered a fire. Renovation projects were proposed around 1750 but were not immediately implemented. After an exchange contract with land located around the former Hôtel de Conti, the Monnaie de Paris will be transferred to its current location. The old coin will be razed during the second half of the 18th century.
