Notice how there is a field on the front with yet little produce. This same field on the reverse, after the rain, is producing a bountiful crop.

What if the strange wheel thing symbolizes good luck (in the form of impending rain from the clouds depicted). On the reverse, we see the result of the rain, a growing crop. The "haec" could refer to the sown field (seges (f)) and the inscription could mean "With your help, I will care for this field", literally, "This, increased by you, I will cultivate". The field could, of course, be a metaphor for anything of worth in life.

We are not the only ones who are puzzled by this coin. It has and remains a mystery:

I don't think the two sides of the coin are linked to each other that closely. On the coin posted in #76 is the same wheel-picture but a completely different picture on the other side (midget bribing a judge?).

The wheel with the broken axle could be flying through the air because of a crash someone had when speeding with his horse-cart (taking a risk). Maybe a bit far-fetched :). I have no idea how fast their horse-carts back then could go.

I'll see tomorrow if I find something about this coins on Google. I'm sure there is a plausible explanation. Gotta go now...

When did the French start playing Roulette? It looks like a Roulette wheel, pie in the sky, so to speak.
