The specimen shown is an écu aux palmes ("écu with palms") struck in Amiens during the reign of Louis XIV of France. This type was struck 1693-1701 in large quantities, mostly overstriking older écus ("flans reformés"--see the specimen shown for the visible undertype). It was succeeded by the écu aux insignes. Droulers[1] prices this date about 60% more than the common date, but even a common date is priced 20% higher than an écu à la mèche longue.
Recorded mintage: 42,497 "flans neufs" plus 496,911 "flans reformés."[1]
Specification: 27.45 g, .917 fine silver, 38-41 mm diameter, edge lettered DOMINE SALVVM FAC REGEM.
Catalog reference: Dr/4 no. 510, Dr/2 no. 410, Dav-3813, KM 298.21.
