Thanks for your insight. So do we think it's the patterned backs that place it around that time?
I read on the Camion site that the printing of the deck changed to roughly four colors in 1880 due to advances in printing. So perhaps this deck with it's seven colors was printed shortly before the changes in printing.

Hello again,
I have received one hundred preorder for both Milennium and Conver.... Welcome in the Club

)
Backs are always interesting and your Conver's back seems more 19th century rather than 18th century (see my Conver edition back less elaborate).
So 1870 seems ok for me.
Printing process changed (in worst for me) around 1880 with less colours.
Cordialy,
Yves
