Excerpt from Manuel de Numismatique Fran???aise, Vol. 1: Monnaies Frapp???es en Gaule Depuis les Origines Jusqu'??? Hugues Capet Ce manuel fournira peut-???tre un r???pertoire utile ??? ceux qui savent d???j???; nous croyons qu'il est con???u pour donner en outre les premiers ???l???ments de la science ??? ceux qui veulent ???tudier. On pourra s'???tonner de ne point trouver, ??? cette place, une plus longue introduction groupant de nombreux faits g???n???raux. Pour la partie trait???e dans ce volume, il a paru pr???f???rable de m???ler plus intimement ces renseignements au texte m???me de l'ouvrage. Ainsi les recherches sur la condition des monna_yeurs m???rovingiens ne sont gu???re s???pa rables de l'???tude de la monnaie m???me. Disons pourtant ici quelques mots de la technique, qui n'a pas beaucoup vari??? depuis l'antiquit??? jusqu'au XVI0 si???cle. Les outils sont repr???sent???s de la m???me mani???re sur une monnaie de la R???publique romaine et sur un denier de Louis le Pieux; on y voit les marteaux et les deux coins qui servaient ??? don ner au disque de m???tal (flan) les empreintes voulues. Ce pro c???d??? primitif, si ???loign??? des balanciers et des presses modernes, imprimait aux esp???ces mon???taires un aspect irr???gulier, qui ???tonne tout d'abord ceux qui n'ont pas l'habitude des monnaies anciennes. En effet, c'est seulement lorsque Aubin Olivier, conducteur de la Monnaie des ???tuves, sous Henri II, e???t invent??? la virole bris???e, que les flans des monnaies, jetons ou m???dailles, ne purent s'???carter entre les coins; gr???ce a cette invention la tranche des pi???ces fut reguliere, cannel???e et m???me imprim???e'. Mais, ??? mesure que la technique se perfectionnait, l'art perdait du terrain. Certaines monnaies romaines du IV si???cle et beaucoup de pi???ces carolingiennes sont plus r???gu lieres que divers stat???res gaulois et deniers de Postume. Mais combien l'art est plus vivant sur ceux de ces petits monuments qui sont plus anciens que les autres!
