[QUOTE="Ian, post: 32163, member: 283"]The constitutional monarchy continued up to Louis XVI demise on 21st January 1793. Much of the coinage intended for 1793 had already been coined and distributed by then (as far as i'm led to believe although I would be happy to be shown otherwise). The Ecu of Six Livres of 1793 with the Genie de France *obverse* was struck after Louis' death and rather obviously has no mention of royalty on it. The Ecu of Six Livres of 1793 with Louis XVI bust obverse and Genie reverse however were apparently struck when he was still alive. If you don't know the particular coins i'm talking about I can scan the ones I have and show.[/QUOTE]
