BuyGuns Valued Member United States 335 Posts	Posted 08/29/2019 06:37 am Acquired this coin, on its way, but asking if anyone thinks a 291 year old coin, in ok shape (Reverse not too bad), carries a premium for the overdate? 1728 with an obvious '7' under/over it. Can't find another like it. Low mintage. About 90,000+ I think. Not a very high value on these, especially worn as it is. Hand hammered I think, and why these seem to have many variations. Anyway, not an expert at all on these, but looking for an education. Thx. Report this Post to the Staff

erafjel Pillar of the Community Sweden 2124 Posts	Posted 08/29/2019 07:32 am There is generally no premium for re-engravings like this, they are not that rare and can be found on various types of French coins from the time. (Also, this is not a hammered coin, it is like all 18th century French coins made using a mechanical press.) Report this Post to the Staff
