| Aanvullende informatie |
Château-Regnault was a tiny principality on the Meuse in the Ardennes, and its right to strike coin was perpetually contested by the French crown. Francis of Bourbon-Conti held the title, and his wife Louise-Marguerite of Lorraine — daughter of the Duke of Guise assassinated at Blois in 1588 — brought enough political weight to the marriage that their joint coinage carried unusual dynastic significance for so small a territory. The principality lost its minting privileges definitively when Louis XIII absorbed it into the French royal domain in 1651.
