Louis XV gold Louis d'or 1735-M MS64 NGC, Toulouse mint, KM489.13. A serious contender for type-set placement, this sharply struck offering displays lightly toned luster that effortlessly brightens the fields and and deeply impressed designs front and back. A rare grade for this early type, currently the only certified example at NGC in this date/mintmark combination, and as such, a coin that should receive great attention from the collectors of French gold.
