La nouvelle République émit des « assignats » c'est-à-dire des billets de banque nominalement garantis par les biens confisqués à l'Église et aux domaines nationaux. Ces assignats ont été surimprimés de manière massive au début des années 1790 et ont entraîné une hyperinflation catastrophique. Le Directoire a tenté diverses solutions mais a dû les abolir et revenir à la monnaie métallique en 1797. Ce document était essentiel pour permettre aux tribunaux de déterminer la valeur de la monnaie dans un département donné à une date donnée. Il s'agit d'un document de première main permettant de comprendre les mécanismes de l'effondrement des assignats. Traduit avec DeepL.com version gratuite Mme Ve J. Decle & Renard hardcover
