Hello cmcdon0923,
thank you for sharing your coin.
You are completely right, this
rare variant is not in the old
Bellinger list of
Class A Folles' target='_blank'>ornament varities.
Grierson icluded it into the list when
writing the
DOC books as nr. 24a -
Since the coins of this variant in the
DOC collection are quite worn he could not exactly determine the
Class A Folles' target='_blank'>ornament in the book.
With your specimen and a few other found since the 70ties it is now clear, that
Grierson´s
Var. 24a has 2 pellets in the
nimbus cross,
2 pellets in the book and this floral
Class A Folles' target='_blank'>ornament on the
reverse. ( this
reverse Class A Folles' target='_blank'>ornament also occurs on
var. 39-40 of Bellingers list )
The "
Manus Dei" though it is not a regular varity but a beautiful "coincidence" makes your coin a unique masterpiece.
