Description

1756 Franco-American Jeton. The Migrating Hive. Betts-393, Breton-517, Frossard-Unlisted (WWC Wilson / Raymond Obverse T). Silver. Reeded Edge. AU-58 (NGC).

28.6 mm. 103.5 grains. Coin alignment. Mottled pastel blue and pale gold toning decorates attractive light silver gray surfaces. Good luster, with some reflectivity remaining. Scattered tiny marks are present, none serious, though we note a little scuff low in the right obverse field. A very pretty piece with a great old provenance.

From the stock of Burdette G. Johnson; Spink America's sale of June 1997, part of lot 76; our sale of the E Pluribus Unum Collection, November 2020 Auction, lot 4016.
