1695-“9” [Rennes Mint] Recoined Sol de 15 Deniers, Gadoury 91. Very Fine/Fine, the obverse stronger than the reverse, overstruck on an earlier douzain. The obverse legend is weak at the lower right due to the overstriking, the rest of it bold, and the shield and date both sharp. The reverse is weaker at the periphery, with about half the legend visible, but the design is strong enough, as is the distinct mintmark at the center. Medium silver hue, the surfaces with some darker toning spots and a few edge splits due to the overstriking. UNLISTED in Gadoury as an overstrike on a later douzain, but the date and mint is listed as his 92, over one of the larger, older douzain types (which this clearly is not). No reported mintage, Rennes is usually one of the rarer mints.
