1767-A French Colonies Copper Sou. Vlack 5-E (E), with the RF countermark. Fine or so, the countermark flattening out a few letters at the reverse area opposite, as is always the case, the rest of the legends mostly there, ranging from weak to strong, with just a few letters lost at the base of the obverse. Medium brown with lighter golden highlights, a small planchet crack at the lower right obverse edge. The entire Vlack article on these was reprinted in the December, 2001 issue of The Colonial Newsletter, which includes line drawings of the 15 different countermark punches Vlack was able to identify.
