Jean Elsen sale 141, lot 1304

This specimen was lot 1304 in Jean Elsen sale 141 (Brussels, June 2019), where it did not sell. The catalog description[1] noted,

"FRANCE, Royaume, Louis XIV (1643-1715), AR écu aux palmes, 1695D, Lyon. 2e réformation. D/ B. à d., cuirassé à l'antique. R/ Ecu de France rond, couronné, entre deux palmes. Très Beau. (kingdom of France, Louis XIV, 1643-1715, silver écu of the palms of 1695, Lyon mint, second reformation. Obverse: armored bust right; reverse: crowned round arms of France between two palms. Very Fine.)"

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[2] prices this date as common date, but even a common date is priced 20% higher than an écu à la mèche longue. Its original face value was 3 livres 8 sols tournois, which was reduced to 3 livres 5 sols tournois in July 1701.

Recorded mintage: 13,722 fn + 240,810 rf[2].

Specification: 27.45 g, 0.917 fine silver, 38-41 mm diameter, edge lettered DOMINE SALVVM FAC REGEM, this specimen 27,23 g.

Catalog reference: Dupl-1520A; Ci., 1894; Gad-217, Dr/4 № 510, Dr/2 № 410, Dav-3813, KM 298.5.
