C- Caen Mint - 1742-C Billon Sous Marques. Vlack 59. Rarity-8. About Uncirculated, though slabbed as EF. Well struck overall, just the G of DG on the obverse not visible, everything else sharp, including the date and mintmark, and with strong design detail. The original silvering is nearly full, with the high points on either side and two small areas in the reverse fields that are slightly darker, this likely more from cabinet friction than actual wear, as there are no real marks or damage from circulation. A lovely example of an extremely rare variety, the only one we recall seeing that was nicer was the Vlack coin, which brought a strong $2,300 in 2008! No example of the date at all in the Ford collection, and a major find for the specialist.
