- 1749-E Sou Marque. Tours Mint. Vlack-87. Rarity-8. AU-50 (PCGS). 34.1 grains. The obverse is mostly bright silver with steel-olive outlines to the design elements, while the reverse is more evenly patinated in sandy-silver. Full silvering to both sides, so much so that the coin actually has the appearance of being struck in silver. The strike is sharp and only marginally off center to 12 o'clock on the reverse, minor planchet crack at 6:30 relative to the obverse. Syd Martin opines that this "must be the finest known" for this rare issue from the Tours Mint. Provenance: From the Sydney F. Martin Collection. Earlier ex Byron Weston; Jeff Rock, April 2006.
