There are five jetons available, each sold individually. Please use the drop down box and choose which jeton you would like to purchase to add it to your cart. For multiple jetons, each jeton must be added individually. Please note that the first two photos show the first jeton, the second two show the second jeton, and so on.
All measure ¾".
The FC in the triangle stands for F. Cartaux, a French medalist who lived in Paris, circa late 1800s. Four out of the five jetons have this symbol, but the second jeton, depicting a dog, does not have this mark.
These collectible French jetons are considered "monnaie jeton de nécessité," meaning it was issued in emergency as a means to supplement the national currency. In the Middle Ages in Europe, jetons were used most often as counting tools. The jeton as emergency currency was most popular from 1914 to 1927 in France.".
*****Condition: Please note surface wear and scratches to the face and reverse of each jeton as well as discoloration to the face and reverse. Please examine the photos carefully and do let me know if you need more as I'll be happy to oblige.
Thank you for looking.
