Quote: according to Numista there were 28 mints in France that produced the 1726 ecu "aux branches d'olivier" from Louis XV t360 has posted 20 of those ! I am impressed Me too!  Elsewhere we had a thread on number of mints in a country/era, and I don't think royal France came up. The consistency of design (especially the royal portrait) across the mints is very interesting.

Quote: @t360, on the other hand, the coins that you have been posting have been considerably different from many of ours. Deeper pockets? More of a French-focus than a date-focus? Interesting thoughts to be pondering... @Spence French ecus always seemed under-priced to me compared to other European crowns struck in the 1600s and 1700s. So I just kept looking for decent examples at a good price for 20+ years.
