Louis XIII gold 2 Louis d'Or 1640-A UNC Details (Obverse Repaired) NGC, Paris mint, KM108, Fr-409, Gad-59, Dup-1297. "IMP" in reverse legends. An example of obvious Mint State quality, with luster that brightens the fields and attractive honey-gold color throughout. Despite the Details assignment, we are unable to determine the cause for the label of "Repaired." Though there is some central weakness to the design over both sides that may have elicited such a judgement, this would seem to be an issue of strike, as the whole of the surfaces appear as-made. Overall, a desirable first year of issue within the milled gold series under engraver Jean Warin.
