Louis XV gold Louis d'Or 1735-S AU Details (Stained) NGC, Reims mint, cf. KM489.19 (date unlisted), Gad-340 (R4), L4L-478 (R5). Louis d'Or aux lunettes. A great rarity that was apparently struck from somewhat rusted dies, with only one other having come to light in the course of our research--the Bearn specimen (MS63), which brought $2350 in our January 2017 auction #3051. Assigned the highest rating by Les monnaies des quatre Rois Louis, this piece is quite pleasing for the assigned grade, and seems to the present cataloger to be more accurately saltwater damaged than stained.
