Louis XVIII 5 Francs 1815-A MS66+ NGC, Paris mint, KM702.1, Gad-591. Scarce so choice and with an incredible melange of color that paints the planchet in full rainbow brilliance. As the grade indicates, this current selection contains a beautifully rendered strike that has produced needle-sharp detailing across the King's hair and throughout the reverse shield. The open fields retain full original luster that easily meanders the tone, and despite some irregularity to the rims from the edge lettering process, this coin commands the viewer's attention at every turn.
Estimate: 2000-3000 USD
