Henri III (1574-1589) 1/2 Franc 1587-G XF45 NGC, Poitiers mint, Dup-1131. 29mm. 7.01gm. A markedly well-aged specimen of this normally "white-washed" coinage, a brief taste of tangerine-infused patina on the obverse quickly escalating to a crescendo as one turns to the reverse, where rainbow peripheral elements perfectly frame a cobalt and magenta center. Sold with old collector's envelope and Ivan L. Schuster dealer tag.
From the Morris Collection
