France
Louis XIV gold 2 Louis d'Or 1702-N MS62 PCGS, Montpellier mint, KM335.11, Gad-261 (R4). Flan réformé. A simply stunning specimen from this highly collectible type and one that sees impressive sums when located in decidedly Mint State preservations. Blessed with a resounding strike that largely obliterated the host-coin details that so often poke through on even the finest representatives, the piece at hand endures as the finest, both conditionally and aesthetically for this scarce date/mint combination. As such we anticipate a bidder response commensurate with the growing appreciation for fine examples of early French gold.
