FRANCE. 1/2 Ecu, 1679-B. Louis XIV (1643-1715). NGC VF Details--Tooled.
Gad-178; Duplessy-1494. Struck in a year that saw Louis XIV end more wars than he started, with both the Treaty of Fontainebleau and Saint-Germainen-Laye being forced upon adversaries, as well as the Peace of Lund. Minor tooling marks in the left obverse field in an attempt to remove deposits from the surface of the coin. Quite minor all things considered, the overall look is pleasant with a remarkably detailed portrait. NGC VF Details--Tooled.
Estimate: $175.00- $250.00
