Description: | Copper alloy French jetton with four lis in a lozenge within a tressure of four arches, struck mainly in Paris during the reign of Charles VIII (1483-1497). During this period the 'four fleurs de lis in a lozenge' became the principal royal design on jettons and is the only late 15th century official jetton design documented in the records of the Paris mint from 1488 (Mitchiner, 1988, pp.206-209, No.596).
