France
Louis XV 2 Louis d'Or 1751-A MS64 NGC, Paris mint, KM519.2, Gad-346. The finest graded of its date, one of few Double Louis d'Or specimens to exceed the choice grade level. 1751 is a key date to obtain in the series, one which is missing from all but few collections. This piece is, in a word, sublime; the planchet remains only minorly affected by the adjustment marks so prevalent for issue, its luster complete and scintillating. Louis's portrait is immaculately rendered and without any significant detraction. The finest of the type the cataloger has seen.
