This specimen was lot 70453 in Stack's Bowers Collector's Choice sale (Santa Ana, CA, February 2020), where it sold for $384. The catalog description[1] noted, "FRANCE. Ecu, 1717-G. Poitiers Mint. Louis XV. NGC AU-53. An evenly worn and presentable circulated ecu, exhibiting ample evidence of an undertype, with pervasive dark gray to charcoal toning." The type was struck 1715-18 in substantial numbers but was replaced by the écu de France-Navarre, which is only 24.47 grams. At the time of issue, it had a face value of 5 livres tournois, which rose to 15 livres in July 1720 but was demonetized in September 1720 at a value of 13 livres, 2 sols, 6 deniers.
Reported Mintage: 41,563 on new blanks plus an unknown number made on "reformed" blanks; a common date.
Specification: 30.59 g, 0.917 fine silver, .902 troy oz ASW, 41 mm diameter, edge lettered DOMINE SALVUM FAC REGEM, designed by Norbert Roëttiers.
