Hi I have a 1798-99 un decime.I have tried various websites to get an idea of the value.The sites all say the coin weighs 20g but mine weighs in at 21.3g.It also has edge markings(diamond shapes repeating)since I havn't seen any others is the norm?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

This is a very complicated series, difficult to see from your photo, but it is possibly 7/5 A/R, the edge markings you describe are normal for this series, weights vary greatly

Here's a 7/5 Coq/Corne

lots of images here (nb click numbers in right hand column) and

If you can handle some basic French go to the Amis Du Franc

Click on "site Dupre" - hundreds of images submitted by members and if you register you have access to the expert system being used to try and identify all the different die varieties in use for the 1c, 5c, decime & 5 francs L'an 4 to L'an 12
