Charles X Franc 1830-A MS65 PCGS, Paris mint, cf. KM724.1, Gad-450a. Reeded edge, 5-leaf variety. A variant of the Gad-450 type mandated by royal decree in March of 1830 and struck exclusively on a single day, May 24th, 1830. The difference between the two is without question, as the specimen exhibits a level of detail that reminds one of a Proof issue, with exceptional relief across both the king's bust and on the crisp reverse design. Lightly toned with gold and seafoam iridescence visible on both obverse and reverse.
