No. 218 James E. Mcclellan III, Old Regime France and Its Jetons
H-France Review Vol. 20 (December 2020), No. 218 James E. McClellan III, Old Regime France and its Jetons: Pointillist History and Numismatics. New York: American Numismatic Society, 2020. xiii + 268 pp. $100.00 U.S. (hb). ISBN 978- 089722-362-1. Review by Jeffrey S. Ravel, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Every Monday morning at eleven o’clock for most of the eighteenth century, the members of the Comédie-Française acting troupe were supposed to assemble to deliberate on their artistic and financial affairs. The actors and actresses, many of whom had little enthusiasm for administration (not unlike academics today), needed extra motivation, which the Comédie provided in the form of jetons d’assemblée. These were tokens worth three livres up to 1757 and six livres thereafter. In one six-year period, from 1755 to 1761, the company spent an average of 5,870 livres per year to bribe its members to attend the weekly assembly.[1] I suspect that most Old Regime specialists reading this review will have a similar passing acquaintance with the usage of jetons in various institutional settings. Jean le Rond d’Alembert, for example, famously developed a reputation as a jetonnier, or a mercenary who only showed up at sessions of the Académie française to collect his attendance tokens. One of the great merits of the new book by James E. McLellan III, however, is to make clear the surprising ubiquity of jetons in Bourbon France. From the halls of Versailles to the assemblies of provincial estates to the meetings of royal academies and trade guilds, jetons were everywhere. -
Exonumia April 2017
Exonumia APRIL 2017 141 W. Johnstown Road, Gahanna, Ohio 43230 • (614) 414-0855 • [email protected] Introduction Welcome to Kolbe & Fanning’s first catalogue devoted to numismatic exonumia. Exonumia is broadly defined as tokens, medals, scrip and other numismatic items besides regularly issued coins and paper money. By “numismatic exonumia,” we refer to exonumia that pertains in some way to the coin collecting field. Examples might include tokens issued by coin dealers or collectors, medals depicting prominent collectors or scholars, badges produced for coin shows, “Good For” tokens or scrip issued by coin firms, and so on. Much of the material included in this catalogue was collected by our founder, George F. Kolbe, over the years. Some of it is very rare. Some of it is quite obscure. We think it is all very interesting and a lot of fun to boot, and we hope you agree. —Kolbe & Fanning Terms of Sale Items listed are available for immediate purchase at the prices indicated. No discounts are applicable. Items should be assumed to be one-of-a-kind and are subject to prior sale. Orders may be placed by post, email, phone or fax.
