On trouve sur le site http://www.connaissancesdeversailles.org/t4670-presentation un jeton ovale dans le forum qui présente les mêmes initiales et armoiries et qui est attribué à Françoise-Marie de Bourbon, dite Mademoiselle de Blois, fille légitimée de Louis XIV, épouse en 1692 du futur Régent, Philippe d'Orléans.
Jeton ovale sur ce site dédié à Versailles, jeton triangulaire à pointes coupées dans notre cas, une certitude : Mademoiselle de Blois faisait de son mieux pour se singulariser !.
