Lot Description

1720-A Livre d'argent fin, or 20 Sols. John Law Issue. Paris Mint. Gadoury-296, Hodder-1. MS-62 (PCGS). A highly desirable example, struck at a time when John Law's Company of the Indies had control over the French mints and operated them for its own profit. Sharply defined within uniformly denticulated borders, both sides are lustrous, satiny, and adorned with iridescent peripheral toning. Lovely! PCGS# 167113.
