Commentary
Original jeton octogonal posé sur la pointe. La première chambre de commerce fut celle de Marseille créée à la fin du XVIe siècle. Pour Paris, les six corps des marchands et les juges-consuls avaient un rôle similaire à celui d'une chambre de commerce : une association de commerçants réunis pour délibérer sur les intérêts de leur ville ou de leur région et donner leur avis au gouvernement. Colbert les légalisent en 1664 en instaurant que chaque place de commerce choisira deux d'entre eux pour les représenter. L'institution ne fut toutefois établie réellement que par l'arrêt du Conseil du 30 août 1701 et de nombreuses chambres de commerce apparaissent au XVIIIe siècle à Lyon, Rouen, Toulouse, Montpellier, Bordeaux, etc.. La plus importante d'entre elles est Marseille qui avait des attributions dans tout le commerce du Levant et était du département des Affaires étrangères, les autres relevaient du Contrôle général des Finances. Supprimées par la Constituante en 1791, les chambres de commerce sont rétablies sous le Consulat. Depuis 1832, leur recrutement se fait pas élections, elles sont devenues chambres de commerce et d'industrie depuis 1898, regroupées en 21 chambres régionales.

For Paris, the six merchant corps and the consul judges had a role similar to that of a chamber of commerce: an association of merchants gathered to deliberate on the interests of their city or region and give their opinion to the government..

The most important of these was Marseille, which had responsibilities in all Levantine trade and was part of the Department of Foreign Affairs; the others came under the General Control of Finance.. Abolished by the Constituent Assembly in 1791, the chambers of commerce were reestablished under the Consulate. Since 1832, their recruitment has been done by elections, they have become chambers of commerce and industry since 1898, grouped into 21 regional chambers
