I just picked this one up last week in a Heritage sale. Louis XV gold Louis d'Or 1726-P XF40 NGC, Dijon mint, KM489.16, Fr-461, Jones-2305. Includes detailed collector and Auction tags. From the Peter Jones M.D. Collection Obverse: Draped bust left Reverse: Crown above arms of France and Navarre Ruler: Louis XV Composition: Gold Fineness: 0.9170 Weight: 8.1580g AGW: 0.2405oz
Nice coins charlottedude Too bad that the US Federal govt. did not reopen the Charlotte and Dahlonega Mints after 1865.
Did I post this earlier? I can't remember - well, anyway here's one of each 1840 gold issue with the exception of the Dahlonega quarter eagle.
For my collection, this is a barn burner! An 1888 $5 gold Liberty. This is a conditional rarity of a scarce coin. PCGS has graded two others at MS63 plus and 4 higher and not above MS65. Thanks to Mike at ToughCoins!
This is old, right? I like it. I had no gold dollars, I like civil war issues and this one, even though it's an ms62, is "durty"
