French Revolution, Directory years (1st Republic). This was originally a 2 Decimes piece, however it was revalued as a one Decime by effacing the '2' and the 'S' at the end of "DE'CEME". Prominently a counterstamp added "UN" where the '2' used to be. These are rather scarce in this condition.
Obverse: Bust facing left surrounded by the legend REPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE·; Engraver: Augustin Dupré
Reverse: UN countermarked above value, ('2' effaced)
NOTE: The S in "DECIMES" is usually removed, as it is here.
Lettering: UN DÉCIME L'AN 5. A (1796, Paris) Engraver: Augustin Dupré
The edge is patterned indentations that form an 'X' pattern. S.Album Auction 38, Lot 3341 (~ $270).
