Description

1710-AA French Colonies 30 Deniers, or Mousquetaire. Metz Mint. Vlack-8. Breen-282. Rarity-2. MS-61 (PCGS).

38.5 grains. Another high grade example of this issue. Exceptionally sharp, with lively luster remaining on both sides. Well centered on a striated planchet that shows a jagged edge flaw at 9 o’clock relative to the obverse. Some raised specks are seen on the obverse, most notable at the base of the right L and near 6 o’clock, and a scattering of similar specks are noted on the reverse. The rims are fairly flat but the legends are complete.

PCGS# 158677.

From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier ex John J. Ford, Jr. Collection; our (Stack’s) sale of the John J. Ford Jr. Collection, Part XIII, January 2006, lot 67; ex Jeff Rock Collection, September 2006.
