- 1739-Y Sou Marque. Bourges Mint. Vlack-218a. Rarity-8. EF-45 (PCGS). 32.6 grains. Another example of the elusive Bourges Mint sou marque series, and the only error variety, to boot! This extremely rare piece appears to show an upside down letter A instead of the correct V in LUD.XV on the reverse. That letter is surrounded by minor die breaks. Both sides are richly toned in steel and olive-gray. Typical surfaces, a bit rough in places, yet free of mentionable marks. This mint was not represented at all in the Ford Collection. Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier from our (Stack's) sale of the Robert A. Vlack Collection, January 2008 Americana Sale, lot 5138. The plate coin for both the issuing mint and the variety in the 2004 Vlack reference on French billon coinage in the Americas. To view supplemental information and all items from the Sydney F.
