Gadoury-305 variety, Louis XV type. Struck at the Rouen mint.
Struck when John Law’s company controlled the French mints, and thus an issue sought by collectors of early American coins.
And this is the nicest one we’ve ever seen, with superb, original, prooflike surfaces, lovely blue and golden toning and a look that says high end mint state to us, but we’re not cracking it out of this cool, vintage PCGS Garrett slab.
Ex Bowers and Ruddy’s October 1980 sale of the Garrett Collection, as noted, Part III, lot #1300.
