Aquitaine. Edward the Black Prince gold Leopard d'Or ND (1362-1372) AU58 NGC, Bordeaux mint, Fr-11, Dup-1116, S-8121, Elias-140 (R), W&S-150 2/b (R). 3.47gm. +ЄD': P'mO: Gn'S: RЄGIS: AnGLIЄ: P'nCЄPS: AQITANIЄ • (AN ligate, double rosette stops), crowned leopard passant left, raising right forepaw, within tressure of 10 arches, quatrefoils on points and within spandrels / +XP'C: VInCIT: XP'C: RЄGNAT: XP'C: IMPЄRAT • (double rosette stops), floriate cross within quatrefoil, leopards passant in angles. A cherished issue which essentially does not become available in Mint State, a fact supported by the complete paucity of any specimens certified finer than the present across NGC and PCGS combined. Minted with a nearly complete outer beaded border, this specimen positively exudes quality, from the careful crafting of the flan to the full legends, to the utterly sharp central lion motif. We have offered a single other example (though minted from different dies) in this grade, which brought $15,600 in our August 2020 Platinum Night sale.
