1766 Spanish One Real:  1792 French 2 sols deniers - one of the last coins to show King Louis XVI (who was beheaded the following year) and also one of the last pre-decimal French coins: january1may - thanks for your correction. I know this is a 2 sols. I should have checked my post more carefully!

Quote: 1792 French 2 deniers - one of the last coins to show King Louis XVI (who was beheaded the following year) and also one of the last pre-decimal French coins: This is a 2 sols (24 deniers), not 2 deniers. A 2 deniers coin would have been tiny (and more appropriate for the 17th century). A few months ago, I happened to get a bunch of assorted 2 sols coins from 1791-93 (not this type, because this type is specific to BB mint, but very similar). They were mostly a lot more worn than your example though, and, IIRC, even on the better examples the date and mint didn't show up so perfectly.
