Duplessy, Féodales 1752; Poey d'Avant 1858; Friedberg 25; "Monnaie inédite des archevêques d'Arles," in Bulletin de la Société Archéologique de Tarn-et-Garrone tome I, no. 1 (July 1869) p. 25-6 = A. Longpérier, "Franc d'or de Guillaume d'Arles," in RN (1869), p. 273-4; Catalogue de monnaies Françaises trouvaille faite le 6 Juin 1882, rue Vieille-du-Temple, 26 et 28, (Paris 1882), p. 21 = E. Caron, Monnaies féodales françaises, (Paris 1882), 405 var. (legends). Lustrous. EF. Of considerable historical interest and among the rarest gold coins in the French medieval series. Guillaume de la Garde (c. 1325-1374), was a significant figure in the history of Provence in the mid fourteenth century. During this period the Papacy was based in Avignon and Guillaume, who was born into a powerful local family, progressed rapidly through the hierarchy of the Church, rising to become the Archbishop of Arles and Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem. It was as Archbishop that Guillaume crowned the Holy Roman Emperor, Charles IV, as King of Arles in 1365. Shortly afterwards he changed his allegiance and supported Louis I of Anjou, brother of the French king Charles V, who claimed the kingdom by right of his descent from Louis IX (Saint Louis) and Marguerite of Provence.During this turbulent time, it would appear that Guillaume struck a very small gold coinage in his own name. The type adopted was inspired by the franc à pied, a coin issued in vast numbers by Charles V of France from 1364 onwards in his drive to stabilise the currency after numerous debasements during the Hundred Years War, see lots 1016-1018. Elements of the design were altered from the Royal prototype, for example, the sceptre tip and the crown worn by the Archbishop. Interestingly Guillaume adopts the title Prince of Arles. It is unclear in what capacity he could claim this title. He may simply have been copying his neighbour Raymond IV of Orange who also styled himself Prince on the larger emission of gold franc à pieds he made around this time.We can trace only three other examples of the Franc à Pied of Guillaume de la Garde: that described by Poey d'Avant, now in the Bibliotheque National, an example published in 1869 and now in the collection of the Cabinet des Monnaies in Marsielle, and an example of a different variety found in the 1882 Rue Vieille-du-Temple Hoard.

FRANCE, Provincial. Besançon (Free imperial city). nomine Ferdinand III. 1619-1637. AV 2 Ducats (32mm, 6.82 g, 6h). Struck 1642-1664. Laureate and armored bust right, wearing ruff / Crowned double-heaed eagle within coat-of-arms on breast; all within border of alternating coats-of-arms and ornate lis. Duplessy, Féodales –; Poey d'Avant –; KM 40; Friedberg –. In NGC encapsulation 5783259-004, graded AU 50. Very rare. Only 27 annually distributed during their period of production. Ex Pesce (17 October 1985), lot 155.These extremely rare gold issues, particular to Besançon, were specially minted for an annual distribution to the fourteen governors in charge of the mint. Curiously, the city used the portrait and titles of the sitting Holy Roman Emperor, rather than those of the late Charles V, as with all other issues. The special coinage and distribution ceased when Besançon converted to the French monetary system in 1676.
