- 1670-A 5 Sols. Paris Mint. Martin 6-D, Lecompte-186, Hodder-3, W-11605. Rarity-4 (for type). VF-30 (PCGS). Remarkably for a type that is usually known for long intervals in between auction offerings for even single specimens, this is the third 1670-A 5 sols to cross your cataloger's desk for this sale. It is a pleasing silver-gray example with a bit of bolder dove-gray lining the left obverse border. A small planchet crack at 7 o'clock relative to the obverse is as made, the surfaces impressively smooth for the grade with only a few mentionable, although still light marks in the right obverse field. Evidence of a shallow clip along the lower obverse border is also noted. Well defined apart from minor softness in the centers, this is an engaging mid grade example of a historic French colonial issue that is sure to see spirited bidding among advanced numismatists.
