Commentary
Les caisses d'épargne, imaginées au XVIIIe siècle, sont nées au XIXe siècle avec la Révolution industrielle et à la suite d'idées généreuses de protection de l'épargne des salariés et de rendre les économies productives tout en les mettant au service de la Nation. La première caisse d'épargne et de prévoyance est créée à Paris en 1818 puis cet exemple est suivi en province entre 1819 et 1823 à Bordeaux, Rouen, Marseille, Nantes, Brest, Metz, Le Havre, Lyon, Troyes, Reims, etc.. Dans les années 1830-1834, cinquante et une nouvelles caisses d'épargne sont créées tandis qu'en 1835, une loi vient les organiser. De 1835 à 1845, deux cent soixante-trois nouvelles caisses apparaissent, privées ou municipales. En 1870, le territoire compte cinq cent vingt-cinq caisses dont sept hors métropole. Les jetons et médailles des caisses d'épargne servent comme jetons de présence.
