Description

Louis XVI gold "Royal Society of Medicine in Paris" Medal ND MS61 NGC, 42mm. 59.27gm. By Duvivier. An entrancing and monumental gold prize Medal struck for the Royal Society of Medicine in Paris. Featuring a surprisingly life-like rendering of Louis XVI fully embossed upon the nearly two-ounce planchet beneath, revealing surprising depth and detail one rarely experiences from this era. Elevated in visual character by ambered appearances and a gentle mint flash, the piece at hand demands the attention of those focusing on the exhaustive series of French exonumia.
