Lot Description

1738-A French Colonies Sou Marque. Paris Mint. Vlack-16. Rarity-1. MS-64 (PCGS). CAC. This boldly lustrous sou marque is a pleasure to behold. Its silver-gray surfaces exhibit lively champagne-gold toning, especially on the reverse. The devices are all fully struck, and blemishes of any size or sort are all but invisible, even with a loupe. Indeed, the overall quality offered herein is beyond reproach. Choice and appealing, and worthy of serious bidding activity.
