Commentary


Dimensions sans bélière : 55,5*31 mm (épaisseur : 15 mm)

Cet exemplaire, de forme rectangulaire, s’ouvre et permet de placer une monnaie 20 francs Or (diamètre : 22,5 mm) et une monnaie de 10 francs or (20 mm)

Les emplacements pour mettre les pièces sont guillochés formant un motif discret de rosace depuis un point lisse central. L’intérieur du couvercle est lisse.

Sur le bouton-poussoir, on retrouve deux poinçons de charançon. Entre les deux emplacements pour monnaies, on retrouve un poinçon ovale et le chiffre X dans le coin haut gauche.
Technique décorative délicate qui consiste à l’application d’un sulfure métallique coloré.
Dimensions without bail: 55.5 x 31 mm (thickness: 15 mm). This rectangular example opens to hold a 20-franc gold coin (diameter: 22.5 mm) and a 10-franc gold coin (20 mm). The coin slots are guilloché, forming a subtle rosette pattern from a central smooth point. The inside of the lid is smooth. Two weevil hallmarks are found on the push-button. Between the two coin slots, there is an oval hallmark and the number X in the upper left corner. This delicate decorative technique involves the application of colored metallic sulfide.

Historical background


COIN PURSE, WALLET

n/a

From the Middle Ages until the middle of the 19th century, deniers, écus, and then the first francs and centimes, were carried in purses, alms pouches, or small leather change purses, often attached to the belt. When, in the second half of the 19th century, the Second Empire put into circulation more than one hundred million 20-franc gold coins minted with the image of Louis Napoleon III, it was necessary to create a safe and practical system for storing and individually transporting these precious coins. The craftsmen imagined the manufacture of a sort of coin box, which took the name of coin box, then gold holder, and quickly transformed into Louis holder, the first name of the Emperor, but also a reminder of the first gold Louis created at the end of the reign of Louis XIII in 1641.
