ageka Pillar of the Community Belgium 2078 Posts	Posted 04/25/2007 07:16 am I see them in MS 63 or better all the time but shipping is 50% of the price of the coin A pitty nobody seems to sell them grouped There were close to 50 million of them over the years 74 to 80 and it looks like the French were hoarding them because everything offered on ebay is MS quality http://www.lefranc.net/francgb/lefranc0348.html Report this Post to the Staff
halfabustisbetter Pillar of the Community United States 1984 Posts	Posted 04/29/2007 1:00 pm Yes, they've really been more of a bullion coin similar to our Silver Eagles. I don't know how many circulated in commerce, but from what I've seen it can't be too many. I don't know what year catalog you're looking at, but if you see any for sale for $11.50 grab as many as you can and I'll pay you twelve for them Report this Post to the Staff
