Now....here is a 1709-9 Rennes Mint/ Louis XIV Louis d'or graded as MS-64 (Finest graded) That coin in my eyes looks EF-40-AU-53[ATTACH]
I got on link, AV 20 Francs 1815-A Napoleon/ France They actually in French, state that there are adjustment marks, while coin is about very fine....
Roma, I would agree. However, I have never had issues with Elsens. I recently got a AV Basel 1/4 Dukat 1750 that was flawless, I had it...
Nice...I will compliment your Commonwealth Schilling with my 1653 AV Unite "SUN" mm. London Mint 9.02g./ 33mm. Struck under Oliver Cromwell...
I have a 1653 AV Dukat from Basel. They were struck from really bad dies, there are about 5 known examples/ all have weakness in center of coin....
Nice coins!
Same for the 1857-S Double Eagle! There are 200K of these around/ most are MS. Recently, they found a small hoard of mint state Seljuks of Rum AV...
I guess we both forgot!
I agree with Cucumbor. For slabbed MS coins its a different ball game. These coins should never be handled, exposed to fingers/ even more so with...
Great coins! Anyway, I forgot to post this ex. from 1661(forgot I owned it) AV Dukat 1661 Copenhagen Mint Frederik III King of Denmark[ATTACH]

How about that/ Heritage auctions have ZERO 1857-S Double Eagles in Dallas Auction;) First time in years....
Honest grades.....here is a mint state (MS-60) from Heritage Auction to illustrate your point. Coin is so worn should be VF+. Compare that 1851...
Actually, Louis XIV lived happily to 1715/ It was Louis XVI who lost his head in 1793!
Probably the only affordable (average collector)large denomination European AV coinage was the AV 8 Escudos from Spain (8 Escudos= 8 Dukaten) You...
Congratulation, beauty! Funny thing, with TPGs. I have seen Louis XIV Louis d'or graded MS-64 so badly messed up by adjustments marks (poor eye...
Your correct. Louis XIV/XV/XVI most have struck high numbers of Louis d'ors/ the 1/2 Louis d'ors are more $/ Doubles are still cheap for Louis...
Here is my 1657...a bit more ordinary. AV 2 Dukaten 1657 Augsburg Mint Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand III and Wife/ Eleonore Imperial City of...
