France
Louis XV Ecu aux rameaux d'olivier 1726-Y MS64 NGC, Bourges mint, KM486.24, Dav-1330, Gad-321. A stunningly brilliant and lustrous near-gem, exhibiting cartwheel radiance and a light golden tone near the peripheries. The quality represented on this wondrous specimen is rarely encountered, and should assuredly excite the collectors of 18th century crowns and superbly attractive French coinage in general. Boldly struck and tremendously blazing, this exceptional example knows no comparison.
