THE ENGRAVERS GENERAL OF CURRENCY<br />

The position of Engraver General of Currency was created in 1547, at a<br />

time when there were mints scattered all over France. Back in those<br />

days the Engraver General used to cut the original punches, which<br />

were then sent out to all the different mints.<br />
