Title
double tournois of Charles II Gonzaga (obverse)
Description
English: Copper alloy double tournois of Charles II Gonzaga (1609-1631), dated to 1631 on the reverse, who was the son of Charles I, Duke of Mantua and Catherine of Mayenne, and was the Duke of Nevers and Rethel, together with his father.

In 1621, he succeeded his uncle Henry of Lorraine as Duke of Mayenne. In 1627 he married his cousin Maria Gonzaga, inheritor to the Duchy of Mantua and the Marquisate of Montferrat. However, Cesare II Gonzaga, Duke of Guastalla and Emperor Ferdinand II did not accept this succession line, leading to the War of Mantuan Succession (1628-1631).
