Louis XV 1/3 Ecu 1720-D XF Details (Cleaned) NGC, Lyon mint, KM457.6, Gad-306, Dup-1667B/C. 1/3 Ecu de France. The sheer paucity of examples seen on the market in recent decades confirms the rarity of the piece at hand, regardless of its status as Flan Neuf or Flan Reforme. While the piece lacks a notable trefoil below the bust, the presence of details from a potential earlier host or a double-strike rotation call into question any possible attribution.
