My oldest coin

[Fishing4coins]

I found this coin last night in a farm field where I have hunted many times. My heart is still racing I just washed it up and could not believe my eyes. I didn't get back home last night till 11:30 and went straight to bed and didn't wash my coins off till I got home from work today. I'm still shaking. Date 1691 I think it is French. I don't post much because most of the time I find the same kinds of coins over and over. If you have any information on this coin I would appreciate it. Thank you.
