Lote 30047. Louis XVI gold 2 Louis d'Or 1775-W MS64 NGC, Lille mint, KM575.14, Fr-470, Gad-362 (R). An astounding survivor whose brilliance nearly knows no bounds and of a quality seldom-seen across the entire type. Hardly a trace of weakness is detected through the raised features, which illuminate with immense flash when given even a slight tilt. Despite being struck with rusted dies, this does little to diminish both the superior aesthetic and conditional allure of this finest-certified example for the date.
