Additional information

The lords of Charenton, a small seigneurie near the confluence of the Marne and Seine, exercised minting rights that were perpetually contested by the Capetian crown as it methodically absorbed feudal monetary privileges throughout the thirteenth century. Philip IV's aggressive campaign to suppress baronial coinage after 1295 makes the later end of this issue's range — running to 1306 — the more historically charged bracket. By that year, many comparable lordships had already surrendered or lost their mint rights entirely.
