1783-A Cayenne Two Sous. Vlack 386. Rarity-7. Very Fine, the legends full, the date and mintmark both sharp and nice design detail. The metal is uncertain – where the Vlack specimen for the date looked like brass this one is a dark rose hue, with some evidence of silvering still adhering to the legend and design. After an extremely large coinage in 1782 it appears that the demand wasn’t as great for the next half decade and issues from 1783-7 are listed by Vlack as either R-7 or R-8.
