From the Alexander Christopher Collection.

The countermark on the obverse is most likely a private jeweler or goldsmith hallmark. The presence of a hallmark indicates that at least some merchants were distrustful of this type, which is not surprising, considering that this is the first gold coin of fully Republican types from France and lacks the usual portrait of a monarch on the obverse. For another example with a different hallmark, see Heritage 3019 (26 April 2012), lot 24287.

Estimate: 2000 USD
