A very nearly choice specimen, and a rarer type from this monarch, nearly the entirety of the legends visible along the outer rims. Struck just mildly off-center from slightly rusty dies, this is one of only two Nobles of this type certified to date by PCGS, and is among a small handful we have had the privilege to offer. Interestingly, North does not record the French title on coins with Type III lettering.
