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

L’emplacement pour mettre la pièce est décoré de divers point organisé en cercle concentrique.

On note sur la bélière plusieurs poinçons : le titrage “800” et les lettres CR et un charançon ; de plus trois poinçons “charançon” sont visibles sur le rebord à l’intérieur.
Le charançon dans un cadre rectangulaire est un poinçon utilisé pour les ouvrages d’importation à partir de 1893.
Le chiffre 8 apparaît également à l’intérieur au niveau du système d’ouverture.
Technique décorative délicate qui consiste à l’application d’un sulfure métallique coloré.
Dimensions: 40 x 31 mm. This round coin opens to hold a 20-franc gold coin (diameter: 22.5 mm). The coin slot is decorated with various dots arranged in concentric circles. Several hallmarks are visible on the bail: the fineness mark “800,” the letters CR, and a weevil; in addition, three weevil hallmarks are visible on the inner rim. The weevil in a rectangular frame is a hallmark used for imported pieces from 1893 onward. The number 8 also appears inside, near the opening mechanism. A 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.
