Commentary
Ce type est en fait très proche du denier au rameau (MONNAIES XV, n° 1377). Dans le catalogue du musée de Zürich, ce type “quinar” est attribué à l’Allemagne du Sud et n’a rien à voir avec les types de Marberg et de Nauheimer.
This type is in fact very close to the denarius with a branch (COINS XV, no. 1377). In the Zurich Museum catalogue, this “quinar” type is attributed to South Germany and has nothing to do with the Marberg and Nauheimer types.
