France
Louis XV gold 2 Louis d'or 1766-(Cow) MS64 NGC, Pau mint, KM522, Fr-463, Gad-346a. An enchanting provincial issue struck for use in Bearn, this pleasing, near-gem piece offers a light golden-orange tone and underlying luster throughout. Though featuring some adjustment marks on the king's portrait and some minor striking weakness on the coat-of-arms of Navarre, it remains an impressive example from the double louis series.
