A 1646 Paris printed royal edict from the French crown, published by S. Cramoisy, setting out new silver coinage and revised valuations of foreign and domestic coins for the public and officials handling money. The pictures are small woodcut-style engravings of coins, with obverse and reverse portraits, crowned arms, inscriptions and beaded borders, useful for designers wanting compact emblematic roundels, heraldic shields and classical portrait profiles.
