Louis XVI gold 2 Louis d'or 1786-D MS65 NGC, Lyon mint, KM592.5, Gad-363. Scintillating vibrancy engulfs the surfaces and minimal handling solidifies the Gem grade. Light planchet adjustments in the obverse highpoints and natural annealing flaw that streak across the reverse likely precluded an even finer grade.
