oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5246 Posts	Posted 10/30/2018 10:43 am Here I have an unattributed coin from France or something under the control of France. It is in rather poor shape, and I can read on one side: ".XIII roi de france et de navarre", with 3 pairs of crowned "L"s. On the other side I can read: "denier de france" and the design element looks like a lobed and cross fleuree. The coins weighs 4.65 grams and has a diameter of 25.4 millimeters, which is the size and weight of a 2 liard. Unfortunately I cannot match the 3 pairs of crowned "L"s with a picture in Krause, and the cross fleuree is only on the gold coins. Perhaps I am missing something obvious. So attribution help would be appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff

oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5246 Posts	Posted 10/30/2018 2:50 pm OK, I have identified it. Louis 14 (XIIII) 1/2 sol, 1710-12. Not illustrated or even listed in my old Krause. Inscriptions are really "Louis XIIII roi de france et de nav" and "six deniers de france" Edited by oriole 10/30/2018 2:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff
