Lot 44
1767 French Colonies Sou. PCGS graded AU-58. Although quite a few were minted, Breen notes that over 98% were counterstamped with the RF, this is one of the few that was not counterstamped! Light brown in color and boldly struck, the only tiny flaw is a small dark toned area on the C of COLONIES and a couple of ancient lines on the lower right obverse. An extremely rare coin and worthy of a top notch collection. PCGS has only graded one example higher than this.
Estimated Value $1,200 - 1,400.
