County of Auxonne
The county with its capital in the city of
the same name was located in the territory of Franche-Comté
(between Dijon and Besançon, most of the county stretched to the
south). Formed in 1237, when the Duke of Burgundy, Hugo IV,
acquired these lands from Count Jean I de Chalons, who received
other territories in exchange. By the way, these other lands
turned out to be rich in salt deposits and the count became
fabulously rich. Apparently, it’s not for nothing that he was
called wise :).
In 1477, the county was captured by the army of Louis XI and
annexed to the kingdom.

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.

Archbishopric of Lyon
According to legend, the first bishop of
Lyon was appointed in the middle of the 2nd century.
At the end of the 5th century, the city of Lyon was the center
of a county in the Kingdom of Burgundy, and after 534 it came
under the rule of the kings of France.
In 1157, Holy Roman Emperor Frederick Barbarossa transferred
control of the County of Lyon to the archbishop.
The Thirteenth (1245) and Fourteenth (1274) Ecumenical Church
Councils took place in Lyon.
In 1312, Philip the Fair annexed the city to the Kingdom of
France, but until the early 15th century the Archbishopric of
Lyon was allowed to mint its own coins.

Herbert I Wakedog (1015-1036)
Herbert (c. 985-1035) son of the previous
Count Hugo III. He got his nickname because of his habit of
getting up early.
The count was a vassal of the Count of Anjou, but constantly
strived for independence. Enmity with the lord led him to
imprisonment in 1025, where he spent 2 years.
Almost the entire time of his reign, Herbert fought with the
bishop of Le Mans (for lands, naturally, since the bishop was
the same lord as the other feudal lords) and was even once
excommunicated from the church.
The minting of coins with Herbert's monogram began in the third
decade of the 11th century. and lasted throughout the 12th
century.

Signoria of Neufchateau
The town of Neuchateau is located in northwestern France, in Lorraine. In Roman times the city was called Noviomagus (or Noviomagus, Neomagus). In 1094, when the Duke of Lorraine Thierry II (1070-1115) built a castle here, the city appears under the name Novum Castrum. A 12th century poem describes it as large, rich and well fortified. In 1231 Neuchateau became the first settlement in Lorraine to receive city rights. In 1436 and 1476 the city was occupied by Burgundian troops. After the fall of the Duchy of Burgundy, Lorraine came under French control. Richelieu, just in case, ordered the destruction of the city walls. In 1766, the city, along with all of Lorraine, officially became part of France.
