1 Sol - Louis XVI 1777-1791

There's no date on this coin I found and the monarch made it even harder! I thought it was an English monarch but it turned out to be French - Louis XVI. This means that this coin is between 1777-1791.

1 Sol which is the equivalent of 1/20 Pound. 12 grams of copper however this coin is a little lighter due to the wear on it!

Now my oldest French coin! How exciting!
