1701-Crowned L [Lille Mint] Sol de 15 Deniers, Gadoury 91. Very Fine or nearly there, struck on a virgin planchet. A few letters weak on the obverse, all there on the reverse, the date and mintmark both bold. Light pewter hue with some darker tone, the surfaces with the expected light roughness to them, but overall not bad. The date and mintmark are both sharp. Despite having half the mintage of the 1701-B (offered above), the Lille issue seems to have more pieces extant for the year – though not by much, and this late date issue can still be considered quite a rarity.
