CC – Besancon Mint - 1741-CC Billon Sous Marques. Vlack 280. Rarity-7. Very Fine, higher than that grade in terms of wear. A bit weak at the lower right, with DO of DOM mostly gone as a result, the rest of the obverse legend bold, including the date and mintmark. The reverse is weak at the D of LUD, this due to a planchet flaw – the terminal point of a large tornado shaped flaw that starts at the upper left reverse and extends through the top of the crown and over to the right side; this was in the planchet prior to striking, and there before the planchet was silvered as well. The design details mostly sharp. Much original silvering on either side, even over the aforementioned flaw, toning a light pewter shade, and with an attractive look overall. We like this one more than the heavily flawed Vlack example, and Ford was missing this date completely.
