A friend just ask me a question about a coin he just acquired. Maybe he believe I can help him because I have French ancestors...which is not the case at all. The specimen would be Louis xv and he didn't give me weight and size. He's asking is the coin is common and what value it has in this shape. Can anybody help me ?? Thank you in advance
Probably not a huge amount if this one is worth $26: https://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/gb...e_tete__1770_s_reims_mint/646956/Default.aspx
It's a copper liard of Louis XV from Reims in 1770, rather common mint and year, and in bad condition. Nice and interesting if it's a garden find but that's about it.
Thanks @seth77 and @John Conduitt . I'm gonna call my friend and tell him not to sell his house to buy this treasure.
