[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 61339, member: 669"]Hi Scimachy, and welcome to the forum. I'm afraid the [i][b]only[/b][/i][b][/b] time an [i]exact[/i] value for a rare coin can be stated is at the precise moment of its sale by a willing seller to a willing buyer, with both parties in possesion of all relevant facts. That said, the values of Louis XIII Double Tournois listed in the 1999 2nd Ed. Standard Catalog of World Coins, 17th Century, range from a low of $5 for certain years and mints in VG condition, to a high of $450 for 1633 or 1638-43 St. Palais Mint pieces in XF condition. It is impossible to determine the condition, date or mint mark without higher resolution and lighter pictures than the ones you have posted. The few coins I have checked in my 2nd Ed. and a friend's later 3rd Ed. had substantially similar values, so the $5-450 range for retail prices is [i]probably[/i] accurate. The Spanish coin is neither particularly rare, nor in a very high condition, and wouldn't catalog at very much.[/QUOTE]
