Commentary
Jeton d’entrée ou jeton publicitaire, ce jeton rappelle franchement certains jetons de maisons closes qui prenaient l’aspect d’une pièce de 20 francs or. Faut-il en déduire que sous les masques se cachaient des demoiselles de très petite vertu ?.
Whether it's an entrance token or an advertising token, this token is reminiscent of certain brothel tokens that looked like 20-franc gold coins. Should we conclude that the masks were hiding young ladies of very little virtue?
