France
Louis XV 2 Sols (Sous Marqués) 1762-BB MS67 NGC, Strasbourg mint, KM500.4, Vlack-276a (R2). Billon coinage. An issue considered part of American Colonial coinage due to its usage in the French Caribbean, not uncommon in lower Mint State grades but extremely desirable in the present superb gem condition. Well-struck and alive with shimmering silvery-white luster, with nary a mark to be seen over admirably preserved surfaces. By far the finest certified example of the date and mint, and indeed likely among the very finest surviving examples of the type as a whole.
