France trumpeted its economic authority in the Windward Islands by issuing coinage specifically for the region, including this PCGS MS64 1731-H 12 Sols. Only two examples grade better than this one, which exhibits gorgeous tones.

Sap Moderator Australia 16804 Posts	Posted 05/19/2026 7:35 pm I have one for my OFEC collection, bought it years ago from a now-retired dealer who specialized in Latin America and Caribbean (which is an odd specialization for an Australian dealer), it's nice but nowhere near as nice as this one (maybe Fine or so). Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
