Amedeus of Geneva served as Bishop of Toul from 1296 until his death in 1330, a tenure that coincided with persistent jurisdictional friction between the episcopal lordship and the duchy of Lorraine over control of Liverdun — a fortified town on the Moselle that both powers claimed as strategically vital. The Double Parisis denomination itself was essentially a Parisian monetary form adopted by Lotharingian ecclesiastical mints as French royal currency influence pushed eastward through the region during the early fourteenth century.
Flon documents only a handful of die combinations for this type.
