These coins were produced by private contractors in large quantities at a profusion of mints and in many varieties until the 1640's. Droulers, who estimates that 600 million pieces were made and assigns 91 catalogue numbers to the double tournois of Louis XIII. This variety is called a double tournois au grande buste enfantin, struck at Amiens 1614-15. It is priced only slightly higher than a Paris mint issue. The issues of Henry IV were reasonable compared to those of the regency of Louis XIII, when the queen-mother of France sold production contracts to many of her supporters. The face value was two deniers.
Recorded mintage: 1,648,556.
Specification: 3.13 g, copper, 20 mm diameter.
Catalog reference: Dr/4 № 215, Dr/2 № 124, Gad-7.
