Il Forrer (1902-30, IV, p. 60) riporta: This artist will better be remembered as a Coin-engraver than as a Medallist. His dies of Louis XVIII. and Charles X. are undoubtedly his best productions. He also worked for William I. of Holland, who by Royal decree of 4. October 1815 appointed him Medallist to the Court; and later, 9. December 1816, entrusted him with the engraving of the dies for the 10, 3, 1 and 1/2 Gulden pieces, with the King's bust, while a commission was given to the Utrecht Mint-engravers, D. van der Kellen and A. J. van der Monde to cut the subsidiary coinage in silver and copper, as well as gold Ducats (the "Trade" ducats of the old type). Michaut's signature occurs on the following Dutch coins: 1817. 10, 3,1 and 1/2 Gulden pieces; – 1817. 3 Gulden, new type;- 1818. 10 Gulden. In 1819. D. van der Kellen was appointed Chief-engraver at the Mint of Utrecht, and henceforth Michaut's name does no longer occur in connection with William I.'s coinage.
