Description

1752 Compagnie des Indes Occidentales Jeton. Betts-387 var, Lecompte-112b. Silver. AU-58 (PCGS).

28.8 mm. 113.6 grains. Reeded edge. A popular addition to the Betts series, muling the reverse of Betts-384 with the obverse of Betts-387, a combination seen often enough to wonder how Betts missed it. Nice golden and blue toning over silver gray surfaces, richly lustrous and very attractive. This variety usually appears with significant handling and this one is nicer than most.

From the E Pluribus Unum Collection. Earlier from Maison Platt on October 6, 1973; our (Stack's) sale of the John J. Ford, Jr. Collection, Part XIV, May 2006, lot 313.
