    Colonie de Cayenne = French Guiana

    I don't have a Krause to cover the 1700's, but infromation from Craig's "Coins of the World 1750-1850", listed as

    #1
    obv: 2/SOUS/date LOUIS XVI R. DE. FR. ET DE NAV
    rev: COLONIE DE CAYENNE value

    issued 1780-90

    worth $4.00 in VG (catalog is copyright 1976)

    I'm not afraid to die
    I'm afraid to be alive without being aware of it

    Craig actually has it listed under the section for "French Colonies", so maybe Krause does, too??
