France
Louis XV gold Louis d'or 1743-A MS62 NGC, Paris mint, KM513.1, Fr-464, Gad-341. Wholly superb, with orange-peel coloration and coppery-gold luster that resides within the semi-mirrored fields. A coin that is seldom-encountered, especially at this level of preservation, with a boldly-impressed portrait of the King and reverse imagery that further entices the eye. Likely among the finest survivors of the type, and choice so fine.
