Charles IX gold Ecu d'Or 1569-M MS61 NGC, Toulouse mint, Fr-378, Dup-1057. 3.36gm. An early piece of machine-made French gold, preserved at an unusually fine level for a thin type that was highly susceptible to bending. Currently the only example at NGC, and a clear target for the condition-minded collector.
