Design

Your coin’s reverse re-creates the Louis XIV 30 deniers obverse design by engraver Norbert Roettiers (1665-1727). It features the crowned doubled monogram of King Louis XIV of France flanked by three fleurs-de-lis, along with the Latin inscription “LVD · XIIII · FR · ET · NAV · REX · 1711” (“Louis XIV, by the grace of God, king of France and Navarre, 1711”). The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.


Packaging

Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded clamshell with a black beauty box. Inside the clamshell, a special insert holds both your fine silver coin and a genuine 30-deniers coin, which is sealed in a plastic coin slab.
