Comment

Located in the 3rd arrondissement, this ball was created in 1929 by the couple Jérôme and Eugénie Pomié, who had bought a café-hotel in 1920. From 1931 onwards, the As de coeur became one of Paris's musette temples.
The same token also exists, but with smaller letters on the obverse and larger on the reverse (ref: Lariche 281).
