Description

1723-H French Colonies 1/3 Ecu. La Rochelle Mint. Gadoury-306. Le Chameau Treasure. AU-50 (PCGS).

123.4 grains. An exceptionally attractive shipwreck piece with just a dusting of light roughness and verdigris in a few areas, mostly out of the way toward the peripheries. The surfaces are predominantly light silver and russet with pretty accents of violet and sea-green. Lustrous and essentially unworn. As-made planchet adjustment marks are seen at the centers.

PCGS# 714876.

From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier from the 1725 wreck of Le Chameau; our (Stack's) January 1999 Americana Sale, part of lot 1302; Jeff Rock Collection, October 2008.
