Description
Contains three ounces of gold! Rare by any standards. Just 74 examples were struck, with most of that number no doubt absorbed by French numismatists; to our memory, this is the first of these we’ve handled in some time, if at all! Double thickness, Lettered Edge. Hercules with Liberty and Science motif by Dupre. A superb representative example of this rare 50 Francs piece. In box of issue.
