Commentary
Cette médaille fut frappée sur une pièce de 12 deniers dit au faisceau pour 1791 (atelier indéterminé). L'ancienne église des BARNABITES à Paris, face au Palais de Justice actuel, était la principale fonderie de cloche et produisait des flans de cuivre et laiton destinés à la Monnaie de Paris. Il pourrait s’agir d’un passe pour le personnel de cette fonderie.
Historical background
FRENCH CONSTITUTION - NATIONAL ASSEMBLY
(20/06/1789-21/09/1792
On June 17, 1789, the "States General" set themselves up as the "National Assembly". On June 20, the deputies of the Third Estate, as well as 149 representatives of the Clergy and 2 of the nobility, meet in the Salle du Jeu de Paume, in Versailles and swear not to separate until the Constitution is written. This is the famous "Oath of the tennis court". On July 9, this assembly became the "National Constituent Assembly". This assembly, which then had 1,200 deputies, sat first at Versailles and then at the Tuileries. From September 3 to 13, it votes the Constitution, which the King accepts. Its mission accomplished, it separated on September 30, 1791. It was immediately replaced by the Legislative Assembly..
