Jean Elsen sale 141, lot 1448

This specimen was lot 1448 in Jean Elsen sale 141 (Brussels, June 2019), where it sold for €850 (about US$1,127 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"FRANCE, Royaume, Louis XV (1715-1774), AV louis d'or au bandeau, 1748A, Paris. D/ T. à g., ceinte d'un bandeau. R/ Ecus ovales de France et de Navarre sous une couronne. Dupl-1643; Gad-341. 8,14 g Petites taches. Superbe. (kingdom of France, Louis XV, 1715-74, gold louis of the ribbon of 1748, Paris mint. Obverse: head left, hair tied in a ribbon; reverse: oval arms of France and Navarre below a crown. A few marks, Extremely Fine.)"

This type was struck 1740-71 with a face value of 24 livres. While not so common as the 1748-W, this is not a rare date.

Recorded mintage: 25,673[2], but an available date.

Specification: 8.15 g, 0.917 fine gold, 24 mm diameter, reeded edge, this specimen is 8,16 g.

Catalog reference: Dr/4 № 801, Dr/2 № 543, Fr-464, Dupl-1643; Ci. 2088; Gad-341; Fr-464.
