Nancy 1514 – 1561 Mint-engraver [EN] Il Forrer (1902-30, IV, p. 319) riporta: He worked for three successive Dukes of Lorraine; Anthony, Francis I., and Charles III. The first mention of his name in Mint documents occurs under date 1514/15, where it is recorded that he cut the dies for the first gold Florin of Lorraine. B. Fillon, in his Catalogue of the Rousseau Collection, 1860, ascribed the large Portrait-thaler of Anthony (Saulcy, pl. XVI, fig. 2), Teston (Saulcy, pl. XVI, fig. 3), Half Teston, &c. to the engraver Simon de Bar, who was in the Duke's service between 1515 and 1526, but from Mint records, Lepage has ascertained that these coins, and other issues, were the work of Florentin Olryet, who was the only official Mint-engraver after 1515. The currency of the short reign of Francis I. (1544-1545), and in particular the two Testons of 1544 and 1545, and that of the first fifteen years of Charles III. (1545-1560) must in all probability have been engraved by the same artist, who was pensioned off in 1560 with a yearly allowance of 100 francs. In the accounts of the Treasurer-general for 1563-64, we find: A Florentin, jadis tailleur en la Monnoye, la somme de cent francs pour sa pension.
