<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bart, post: 322371, member: 5580&quot;]I am afraid I have to stick to Strasbourg, specially in the case of this variety KM#612 ROI DES FRANCAIS with A (not FRANCOIS with O). Not only Krause attributes it to Strasbourg, but also the known website <a href="http://www.cgb.fr" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cgb.fr" rel="nofollow">www.cgb.fr</a> , which is very reliable on French coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>Look <a href="http://www.cgb.fr/monnaies/vso/v06/v060008.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cgb.fr/monnaies/vso/v06/v060008.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>, at number 78, which is the same coin as Frank&#039;s.</p><p>Also nrs.79 and 80 are the same type, but of a different year. They are all attributed to Strasbourg (mintmark BB).</p><p><br /></p><p>By the way: they give as alloy : bell metal (métal de cloche). Many of those revolutionary coins were struck in bell metal[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
