Yeah it's 655. As to the mintage figures - the French records are very good if someone takes the time to research them. Oddly enough, Gadoury is...
58 on the first. The second one - based on those pics I gotta say to gets body-bagged. A Genuine slab at best. Coin looks to have been whizzed and...
You found out what many already knew Don. That being that ICG commonly over-grades moderns. As for the ANACS coin, was it in a new or an old...
I have my doubts PCGS would grade either of them. Something funny with the '09 - look at the hair. And I believe the '13 is damaged - part of the...

Hopefully you know this, but those pictures you posted are of a fake coin.
I supoose you are refering to the value of the coin. But we can't estimate value without seeing it - post pics if you can. You should also be...
Now for the letters of the legends, the O's in particular. They were not fully engraved. Neither was the E. The F was first incorrectly...
Now for all the raised lines across virtually the entire reverse. I am only showing the central portion because that is where they are most...
Now for the reverse. Look at these first two pics and examine the denticles. They are all different shapes and size. And I don't mean just because...
OK, now for some tool marks on the obverse. First pic, look at the back of the hairline. See all the the little ragged pints sticking out. None...
