Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Double Tournois - Henri IV coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in France. The coin was issued by King Henri IV in 1592-1594, a period when the country was facing severe financial difficulties and political instability. Despite these challenges, the coin remained a widely used denomination and helped to facilitate trade and commerce during this time. Additionally, the coin's design, featuring the Latin text "Henricus IIII Dei Gratia Francorum Rex" ("Henry IV, by the grace of God, King of the French"), reflects the influence of the Catholic Church and the monarchy during this period.
