Commentary
Frappe médaille. La symbolique de l’eau qui irrigue et fertilise est très fréquente sur les jetons du Trésor royal. L’eau qui s’écoule est censée symboliser le rôle même de l’administration et l’idée est la même que celle fréquemment employée des rayons qui émanent du soleil.
C’est cet exemplaire qui illustre le type dans le Guéant-Prieur.
