According to Krause, the catalog value for the 1720-A 1/3 ecu is disappointingly low. In that grade, with the old scratch across the obverse,...
I think this is it... 1/3 ecu. Diameter 26.5 mm. "A" mintmark (Paris) below the point of the shield. I'm pretty sure the little critter and...
The type which @chuckylucky5 identified is 23 mm, so I dunno. Was there another slightly larger denomination? Hmm... Edit- oh, wait- I just...

I knew you’d have some Terner coins! Wow. Comes as no surprise at all.
She looks more female there. That’s a lovely coin. I should learn more about Persian history. One of my favorite coins is also Persian, but...
Speaking of Vickies, here’s one from her final year. From the Dr. Jacob Terner collection. [ATTACH]
