FRANCE. Ecu, 1740-A. Paris Mint. Louis XV. PCGS PROOF-61 Gold Shield.
Dav-1331; KM-512.1; Gad-322. The only date for which proofs are available, this charming specimen offers a fairly deep peripheral tone on the obverse, with the central fields remaining a light gunmetal gray. The same deepness then dominates the reverse, with hints of brilliance still emanating from the protected areas.
Estimate: $5000 - $7500
