R – Orleans Mint - 1739-R Billon Sous Marques. Vlack 175a. Rarity-7. Fine to Very Fine, weaker at the top obverse and lower reverse, the stronger areas of the VF level; the only letters lost in the legend are much of SIT and the E of ET, the remainder mostly strong, as are the date and the mintmark – the latter clearly showing a stop on either side, making in this very rare subvariety. Pale rose over gray surfaces, a dent at the O of NOM on the obverse shows through as a small raised bump on the reverse, otherwise clean for a circulated coin. Acquired privately from Bob Vlack as a duplicate from his collection, and accompanied by his original typed envelope; the coin in his auction was a lovely EF that brought $690. None in the Ford collection.
