Louis XIV 1/2 Ecu 1651-I MS65 NGC, Limoges mint, KM164.10. A captivating offering with a wholly unique appearance engendered by the rusty character of the dies with which it was struck, which creates a one-of-a-kind texture that carries the light quite wonderfully across the striated surfaces. The toning is unique as well, a soft peach derivative that intermingles with graphite hues to sensational effect. A fantastic gem fully deserving of its lofty grade, and a must-have for the ardent French collector.
