Commentary
Il existe plusieurs variétés en fonction de l’écartement des étoiles, la distance entre le “C” et le point (avers), ainsi que la hauteur du “C”, la longueur du trait sous le “C” et la distance entre le “1” et le “0” (revers). Ce jeton existe avec et sans poinçon. (Ref. Les Jetons de Transport Francais, Roland Elie, 1995).
Historical background
TRANSPORTS AND RAILWAYS
The railway from Paris to Saint-Germain, inaugurated on August 24, 1837, is at the origin of the western railway network since the law of July 9, 1835. One of the locomotives used is a Seguin, model 1829 , the first French smoke tube locomotive. The Western Railway Company was liquidated in 1909 to form part of the state network. On August 31, 1937, the forced merger of the five concessionary companies, North, East, Paris-Orléans, PLM, State, Alsace Lorraine gave birth to the SNCF.
