附加信息	The "louis d'or à la mèche longue" takes its collector name from the young king's unbound hair — a detail tied directly to Louis XIV's age at accession. He inherited the throne in 1643 at four years old, and the long-haired portrait persisted through this entire emission as a deliberate visual marker of youth and dynastic continuity during the regency of Anne of Austria and Mazarin's ministry. France's finances were under severe strain from the Thirty Years' War and the Fronde rebellions, which erupted in 1648 and disrupted mint operations across multiple provincial workshops simultaneously. Several mints struck this type, each identified by a mint mark — Paris, Lyon, Rouen among them — and survival rates vary considerably by facility.
