Lot Title:	French Colonies - La Rochelle Mint 1721, 1722, and 1767 9 deniers, as described
Lot Number:	138
Description:	The War Chest Collection. A trio of French Colonies pieces gain representation here, and are of the type that circulated widely in early America. First is 1767 1-sou, with "RF" counterstamp, perhaps very-fine with lovely patina. Second is 1721-H 1-sou, very-fine details but some moderate environmental damage. These are frequently heavily corroded and the present example is well above average in that respect. Third (and last) is 1722-H 1-sou, Fine or so with a decent planchet but a couple of surface fissures, as struck, Three coin lot.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
