Principality of Chateau-Regnault
The Principality was essentially a castle in the Ardennes, on the border of the Netherlands, France and the Holy Roman Empire. Naturally, his lords preferred not to depend on either one, or the other, or the third. In 1570, the castle was given to Henry de Guise (“the Marked One”) as a dowry upon marriage, and he organized the minting of coins there. Of the principality’s own coins, only double deniers are known, but the local mint became famous for counterfeiting French banknotes, which brought considerable income to its owners. In 1629, Cardinal Richelieu got tired of this and forced the Marked One’s daughter Louise-Margarita (the owner of the castle and the wife of the nominal prince of Chateau-Renaud, Prince de Conti) to sell the castle to the French crown.
