IMO, there's absolutely no way that there are these sorts of numbers in existence of this GAD 50 "common" (point) or any Ecu of this time frame! I'm very active in this and know how uncommon this date is regardless of type. The Canadian Charlton catalogue (2015) (French Regime type) lists the "cheapest" type in VG for $300. Someone's wrong here (You, Gadoury, or I). You are spot on as far as your attribution and that's nice to see as a fellow collector. Serge Pelletier: "The coins are presented by reign, from the smallest denomination to the largest. A list of all mint marks is at the beginning of each reign. One of the biggest changes introduced in this edition has been the discard of mintage figures that have been deemed inconsequential since many of the pieces struck by these kings were later reformed. A rarity scale has thus taken their place: C (common), R (101-500 known), R2 (51-100), R3 (11-50), R4 (5-10), and R5 (less than 5 known)."[/QUOTE]
