Louis XV gold Louis d'Or Mirliton 1724-P MS61 NGC, Dijon mint, KM470.15, Gad-339 (R2), Dup-1638. Large palms variety. The sole date that this mint produced the grandes palmes type of the Louis d'Or Mirliton, and one whose rarity is well-recognized within the series. Represented by a mere 4 other examples in recent sales records, the present specimen exists as the finest of just two straight-grade certified pieces (the other being an AU55 from PCGS), far outranking the Ford piece, while that in the Partrick Collection (an UNC Details) realized $4,560 in our April 2021 sale #61206. As such, certainly of greater scarcity that its R1 rating in L4L would indicate, and likely one of the nicest to have come to market in recent memory.
