This is the real one, made in France (Louis XV without crown)
right picture should look like this (not my coin):

I know I should've noticed it earlier, but seems that the 1719 entry wasn't actually dated 1719, and nobody posted that date properly.

Should we: return to 1719 and start over from there; wait until someone posts a proper 1719 and then continue from 1713 on; or just ignore it and continue normally?

*** ALERT ***


We need someone to post a 1719 (as confirmed by the rules, no ranges) before we can move along to 1712.

You would be surprised how inexpensive a lot of the medieval coins are. It could be either a larger number available or smaller demand or a combination.

I have no idea where in the 18th century this thread is supposed to be right now so here's a Swedish Daler from 1718.

Also, 'expensive' is a purely relative term.
It just depends on your budget.
If you're unemployed living on a park bench, a bus ticket might be 'expensive'.
If you just sold seven million shares of Alibaba, you can buy most any coin you want!
