FRANCE. Louis d'Or, 1669-D. Lyon Mint. Louis XIV. PCGS AU-58 Gold Shield.
Fr-421; KM-219.3; Gad-246. Tete lauree (Laureate bust) type. This charming survivor exhibits bold details that are accentuated by lovely mottled pale gold and light dusky orange tone. The surfaces show light signs of being handled, although much remaining luster resides in the protected areas. Upon close inspection of the date, the third digit appears to be punched over another digit perhaps a 3 or an 8, but this is unconfirmed. An interesting example sure to add depth to the next collection it enters.
Estimate: $1400 - $1800
