| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Charles II facing right, with flowing hair, set within a beaded inner circle. The legend commences at 12 o'clock and runs clockwise around the periphery. The portrait is rendered in a baroque style typical of mid-17th century provincial French coinage. The field is plain, with the bust occupying the central area of the flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Charleville was a planned city founded in 1606 by Charles I of Gonzaga-Nevers on his sovereign principality of Arches, deliberately modeled on an ideal Renaissance urban grid. His successor Charles II continued issuing copper coinage in the French double tournois format — a pragmatic choice given the principality's enclosure within French territory and dependence on French commercial networks. The 22nd type designation reflects how prolifically this small jurisdiction revised its copper coinage, likely tracking successive die contracts or administrative changes within the mint at Charleville.
