FRANCE. 100 Franc, 1857-A. PCGS AU-55.
Fr-569; KM-786.1; Gad-1135. A common date, but with uncommon magenta and hot-looking orange tone along the periphery. Very expressive portrait, the grade being more determined by the rim hit at 12 o'clock on the reverse than any actual wear. A heavy gold coin without laurels from the first decade of Napoleon III. PCGS AU-55.
Estimate: $1100.00- $1300.00
