The service is recorded in the Journal des Présents du Roi on 28 January 1763 costing 10,714 livres and given to "M. le Duc de Nivernois Ambassadeur du Roi à la Cour de Londres", in thanks for his contribution in the negotiations between France and Great-Britain which led to the Treaty of Paris in 1763.
