Description

The 1720 Six Deniers is a small French copper coin worth half a sou, struck at the Paris mint (mint mark A) under the authority of Philippe II, Duke of Orléans (regent for Louis XV). This copper six-denier piece belongs to the John Law years, when the Compagnie des Indes ran the French mints under a grant of the right to coin. CoinVarieties records the copper demi-sol (6 deniers) of Paris as struck from 1719 to 1724.
