France 1815R 20 francs rev DSLR.jpg

This date was struck in London for the use of Louis XVIII during his exile of the Hundred Days. Production was between July and November 1815. Le Franc notes that the coins circulated briefly in France but were recalled by the end of 1815. The date is not rare but the crude and hurried die work means survivors often appear more worn than they actually are.

Recorded mintage: 871,581.

Specification: 6.45 g, .900 fine gold, 21 mm diameter, edge lettered DOMINE SALVUM FAC REGEM, copied by Thomas Wyon after designs by Pierre Joseph Tiolier.

Catalog reference: Fr-531; KM-706.7; F.518.
