Extremely rare silver jeton of Marie de’ Medici, struck in 1627. Marie de’ Medici, Queen of France and Navarre, was the wife of King Henry IV of France. A powerful political figure and regent for her son Louis XIII after the assassination of her husband in 1610, she played a key role in the early 17th-century French court. This jeton reflects her enduring influence during a turbulent period in French history.
