正面描述 Bare-headed bust of Henri IV facing right, rendered in a simple relief characteristic of hammered copper coinage of the period. The king is depicted with a short collar visible at the truncation. A mint mark appears in the lower field beneath the bust. The peripheral legend, separated by pellets or stops, reads HENRI IIII DE G FRN ET NA R, abbreviating his royal title as King of France and Navarre by the grace of God.

背面描述 Three fleurs-de-lis arranged in a triangular grouping occupy the central field, serving as the heraldic emblem of the French royal house. The design is unencircled and presented in a plain field typical of Double Tournois copper coinage of the late sixteenth century. The surrounding circular legend reads DOVBLE TOVRNOIS followed by the date 1595, separated by stops or pellets. The overall composition is characteristic of the hammered coinage produced at the Montpellier mint under Henri IV.

附加信息

Henri IV's early coinage is inseparable from the chaos of his consolidation of power. By 1595, he had formally declared war on Spain and was simultaneously buying the loyalty of Catholic League holdouts — the so-called politique settlements that bled the royal treasury. The Montpellier mint, operating under royal authority in a region that had been a Huguenot stronghold, resuming production under Henri's name was itself a political act.

The double tournois was the smallest practical copper denomination of the period, and Montpellier's output was modest relative to the northern mints at Paris and Rouen.
