France
Louis XIV Ecu 1715-D MS62 NGC, Lyon mint, KM386.4, Dav-1324, Gad-229 (R). An incredibly eye-appealing French crown, keeping the flan adjustments that so often plague the type to an absolute minimum, confined to the margins, all while a thick satin sheen dresses virtually mark-free surfaces. Essentially choice in preservation, we would note that we have handled only a single example previously of this mint-date in 2008, which was interestingly minted from the same dies, though an earlier die state.
