Louis XV gold Louis d'or 1745-W MS65 NGC, Lille mint, KM513.22, Fr-464, Gad-341. An essentially as-struck selection with intricately-detailed and boldly-executed design motifs that are easily choice for the issue. The blooming fields are overflowing with mint luster and upon closer inspection, remain free of any major distractions. The faintest of adjustment marks show across both sides, but are nearly unnoticeable to the unaided eye and a few marks upon the King's portrait ultimately preclude an even finer designation. Likely among the finest-known survivors of the type, this veritable Gem is distinct in all regards.
From the Bern Collection
Estimate: 2000-3000 USD
