Legacy of Thing of a Given Genus
(1)
Where the thing bequeathed has not been determined except by its genus, the legatee may select that which he wishes from among the things of that genus belonging to the testator.
#(2)
Where several legatees are called to select from things of the same genus, the order in which they are to make their selection shall be determined by the drawing of lots.
#(3)
Where the succession does not contain any thing of the same genus as the thing bequeathed, the legatee may in his discretion require the liquidator to give him any such thing of average quality or to pay him the value of the thing bequeathed.
