Copper 24 deniers or double sols of Louis XV (1715-1774) of France referred to as a French colonial 'stampee', used in the West Indies, with a large crowned 'C' stamped on the obverse, but a blank reverse. The first coinage of stampees used worn, old coins. This second major coinage employed newly minted planchets, thus the coin is not a 'reformation' nor a traditional counterstamp. In 1763 the first stampee, or sol tampé, of 24 deniers was authorized. This was a small copper disk stamped on the obverse with a crowned C (for Colonies) and a blank reverse. From dates on the undertypes…

Cast copper alloy nummular brooch. On the exterior face, a double border encloses a schematic, right facing bust wearing a diadem or laurel wreath and with a shoulder defined by an inverted U shape within which are four longitudinal ribs; this is probably a garbled version of the shoulder of a military cuirass. Thus a Roman Imperial issue probably furnished the prototype although a later, for example, Carolingian, original cannot be discounted. Indeterminate shapes that were no doubt intended to convey the appearance of letters surround the portrait but they surely never had any meani…
