- Extremely Rare French Denomination from the Late Middle Ages FRANCE. Aquitaine. 1/2 Hardi d'Or, ND (1469-72). Bordeaux Mint. Charles de France (1468-74). PCGS AU-58 Secure Holder. Fr-21; Poey d'Avant-3147. Obverse: "KAROLVS DVX AQVITANIE". Charles, crowned, facing, bearing a sword in his right hand; Reverse: "XPC REGNAT XPC IMPERAT XPC VINCIT", floriate cross terminating in two oak leaves and an acorn. Light doubling appears at the legends, but the portrait and the surrounding surfaces attractive, with vivid orange gold coloration. A great rarity in any state and after consultation with archived auction records, seemingly the only example to appear at major public auction in at least a decade. Estimate: $15,000 - $20,000.
