jgenn Pillar of the Community United States 1156 Posts	Posted 02/26/2017 2:55 pm Nice ecu au buste habille. The mint mark is W for Lille. There are also two privy marks; the star on the obverse is the privy mark of the mint director Louis-Theophile-Francois Lepage, the half fleur-de-lis next to the date on the reverse is the privy mark of the local engraver A.F.J. Gamot. Edited by jgenn 02/26/2017 3:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
