1722/1-H [La Rochelle Mint] Copper Nine Deniers, Martin 2.7-C.2. Rarity-3. Very Fine, a very well struck example, the legends, date and mintmark all bold, the tops of just a few letters off the planchet at the upper obverse, as centered. From an even later state of this obverse die than mentioned by Martin, with multiple cracks through the base of MIN, through BE of BENEDICTUM, with a crack from the upper leftmost edge of the crossed L’s, and extensive die failure in the obverse fields to either side of the design. This obverse was only paired with this reverse, and when it broke the reverse die was paired with two additional obverses. Lovely medium tan, the surfaces hard to the eye, a glass shows some light roughness and a few ancient scratches that have toned down to the surface color and are not detracting – without those, the piece would certainly have merited the Choice designation.
