France
Louis XVI gold 2 Louis d'or 1790-A MS63 NGC, Paris mint, KM592.1. A pleasing example of the type, with large, golden surfaces highlighted by light tone and iridescent magenta luster that collects around the design elements. Faint adjustments and a bit of reverse strike-softness are barely worth noting, while a handsome amount of luster easily the brightens the illustrations from the fields. Altogether choice at this certified level of technical quality, and an appealing representative from this fleeting series.
