This 1785-A French Écu is a classic silver crown from the reign of King Louis XVI, minted in Paris as designated by the “A” mintmark. Struck during a pivotal time in French history, this coin offers collectors a tangible link to the final years of the monarchy before the French Revolution erupted in 1789.
This example is graded *XF* (Extremely Fine) and displays bold detail, especially in the devices and legends. The coin exhibits *heavy adjustment marks* across the reverse – a result of planchet filing to correct weight before striking. These marks are original to the minting process and are not considered damage but rather a testament to historical mint practices.
