Yes the Louis was a coin.

It was created by Louis XIII in 1640 in golden and silver version.

The golden Louis was also called écu d'or (golden ecu).

This currency had been used until the French Revolution.

After the revolution some coins (franc germinal or The Napoléon) were still wrongly called Louis.
