Louis XIV Ecu 1671-(9) AU55 PCGS, Rennes mint, KM214.4, Dav-3802, Gad-206 (R2), Dup-1483. Ecu au buste juvénile. A scarcer mint-type of this series, admitting some centralized rub but fully rendered throughout the legends. Dramatic azure and cobalt tones form crescents on the obverse peripheries, glistening with original luster like the rest of the champagne-toned flan. Tied for the finest at PCGS.
