Commentary

Il existe deux séries de jetons, qui se différencient par leur graphisme : il s’agit ici de la seconde. La plupart des monnaies de nécessité de la Prison Saint Lazare est contremarqué de un, deux ou trois B, le plus souvent au revers et rarement à l’avers.
There are two series of tokens, which differ in their design: this is the second. Most of the emergency coins from the Saint Lazare Prison are countermarked with one, two or three Bs, most often on the reverse and rarely on the obverse.
