Description

FRANCE. Copper 2 Louis d'Or Off-Metal Strike, 1779-BB. Strasbourg Mint. Louis XVI. PCGS AU-53.
cf. Fr-470 (for regular strike); cf. KM-575.4 (same); VG-65. Already a RARE denomination when encountered in its expected gold composition, this interesting off-metal striking in copper is exceedingly elusive, exhibiting some planchet splitting and irregularities. Nevertheless, even brown in color and highly attractive.

Estimate: $1000.00- $1500.00
