Louis XIV was nine years old when this ecu type began production in 1652 — the Fronde was still convulsing the kingdom, and the young king had already been smuggled out of Paris in the night to escape mob violence. Royal minting authority during these years was exercised largely through the regency of Anne of Austria and Mazarin's administration, making the coin's royal attribution somewhat nominal at its earliest dates.
The "long wick" designation refers to the elongated flame element of the cross reverse — a die characteristic distinguishing this variety from the contemporaneous short-wick type, both catalogued under Dy 1473.
