Description:
The Nation, the Law and the King, France. This scarce jeton was one produced by the moderates who saw a middle ground in 1791. The difficulty was in converting an absolute monarchy into a constitutional one; against the opposition of both the royalty who saw it as in defiance of God's will and those extreme revolutionaries who saw no need for a monarchy at all.
