FRANCE. 2 Louis d'Or, 1713-L. Bayonne Mint. Louis XIV (1643-1715). NGC AU-55.
Fr-443; Gad-264; Dupl-1448; Ciani-1810; Dr/5 no. 277. A VERY RARE double louis d'or au soleil from a type struck 1710-15. Gadoury notes this date as "R4", though none are common. Boldly detailed, this example possesses vibrant color and very few visible handling marks; a few raised die lines and touch of as-struck flan roughness further contribute to the overall character. Our first offering of this type (although it was from a different mint) since our sale of the Kroisos Collection (New York, January 2008 where it hammered for $16,000). NGC AU-55.
Estimate: $8000.00- $12000.00
