Louis XV gold Louis d'Or Mirliton 1724-R UNC Details (Cleaned) NGC, Orleans mint, KM470.17, Gad-339 (R2), Dup-1638. Large palms variety. Razor-sharp devices across lustrous fields, despite the cleaning. The minor encrustations seen in the crevices indicate it was likely salvaged from the 1725 Le Chameau shipwreck, though we have no documentation to support this.
