| Beschrijving keerzijde | Three fleurs-de-lis arranged in a triangular formation — two in the upper field and one prominently centered below — within a beaded inner circle, representing the royal arms of France. The date appears to the left in the field, vertically oriented. The surrounding Latin legend reads DOVBLE LORRAIN with the date, with several documented punctuation and spelling variants. The overall design is characteristic of the Double Tournois coinage struck at provincial mints for circulation in the Lorraine region. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Stenay, a mint operating in the Duchy of Bar under French royal authority, was among the smaller provincial workshops producing copper coinage during the Thirty Years' War — a period when chronic small-change shortages across northern France made the double tournois politically necessary despite its negligible intrinsic value. The 9th type designation reflects one of the many obverse die progressions Louis XIII's administration cycled through as engravers updated the royal portrait across mints.
Provincial copper from this period circulated hard and locally. The Stenay facility closed not long after this issue.
