An écu vertugadin of the Aix mint, struck while Louis XV was a minor. Droulers[1] notes the 1717-& as a better (but not key) date. The type was struck 1715-18 in substantial numbers but was replaced by the écu de France-Navarre, which is only 24.47 grams.
Recorded mintage: 750,000 estimated, all flans neufs.
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.
Catalog reference: Dr/4 № 813, Dr/2 № 553, Dav-1326, KM 414.26.
