Commentary
Ce denier est du même type que le n° 1277 du Belfort où il est associé au monnayage de Chalon-sur-Saône, avec la croix à six bras si typique. Le type de droit n’a cependant rien à voir et notre denier est anépigraphe des deux côtés. Connu dès 1839, avec l’article de Cartier qui le reproduit pl. XVII, n° 8 de la RN 1839, ce type monétaires est représenté au Musée de Chalon-sur-Saône (trouvé à Buxy) et repris par Ponton d’Amécourt, tome III, p. 301. G. Depeyrot recense 21 denier de ce type, ce qui en fait une monnaie assez courante. Il doute de l’attribution à Chalon, en mentionnant la possibilité qu’il s’agisse d’une imitation (cf. Moneta p. 98). Selon l’étude de P. Crinon, ce denier appartiendrait au monnayage remois ; cet exemplaire est le n° 54 pour sa série de “Deniers anonymes au buste casqué”. Selon ce dernier, “ce monnayage semble très abondant, comme l’indique les nombreux exemplaires de coins variés”.
This denier is of the same type as Belfort no. 1277, where it is associated with the coinage of Chalon-sur-Saône, with the very typical six-armed cross. However, the obverse design is completely different, and our denier is uninscribed on both sides. Known since 1839, thanks to Cartier's article which reproduces it (pl. XVII, no. 8 of the RN 1839), this type of coin is represented in the Chalon-sur-Saône Museum (found at Buxy) and discussed by Ponton d'Amécourt, volume III, p. 301. G. Depeyrot lists 21 deniers of this type, making it a fairly common coin. He doubts the attribution to Chalon, mentioning the possibility that it is an imitation (cf. Moneta p. 98). According to P. Crinon's study, this denier would belong to the Reims coinage; This example is number 54 in his series of “Anonymous Deniers with Helmeted Busts.” According to him, “this coinage appears to be very abundant, as indicated by the numerous examples from various dies.”
