Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Ecu - Anne Marie Louise 1673 coin from the Principality of Dombes (French States) is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in France. The coin was issued in 1673, just a few years after the Fronde, a civil war that nearly toppled the monarchy and devastated the French economy.
