Interesting fact
The Gold Louis with old face - Louis XV 1774 from France made of Gold (.917) weighing 8.11 g is a rare and valuable coin. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Louis XV, who was known as the "Benevolent King" for his efforts to improve the lives of his subjects. Despite his efforts, the coin was not widely accepted during his reign and was eventually replaced by other coinage. Today, it is a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
