Description: Great historical Henri III Silver DOUZAIN, dated 1586, C/M of 1640. The coin is ANACS graded VF 20 (Cleaned.). A bit of history. No French coins were minted exclusively for circulation in French Canada (called Nouvelle France). However, some issues were designated for general circulation in the French New World possessions, including Canada and possessions in the Caribbean. The first New World colonial issues were "recycled" old Douzain coins, that is coins of 12 deniers or one sol. These hammered coins were composed of billon and consisted of both regal issues and regional coinage issued by local ecclesiastical or feudal lords. According to an edict of June,1640, these older worn coins were authorized to be counterstamped with a punch displaying a fleur-de-lys within a beaded oval. Once the coins were counterstamped they were sent to the colonies. You Coin will be shipped as soon as payment is received. If you have any questions let me know before you bid.
