1769
Silver
Standard ecu dimensions
Provenance: Private New Mexico collection
This 1769 French ecu of Louis XV was struck at the Bayonne Mint and grades MS-60, indicating an uncirculated example with the original surfaces intact, retaining old cabinet toning consistent with extended collection storage. The Louis XV ecu series, produced across multiple French mints during his reign, represents the principal large silver denomination of the Ancien Régime, and examples from the Bayonne Mint are among the less commonly encountered in high grades. Private New Mexico collection provenance connects the piece to American numismatic collecting.
