Commentary
Bronze bien identifiable, avec les légendes COL et CABE entières et bien nettes. La type de droit est bien plus large que celui du revers, ce qui est particulièrement flagrant sur cet exemplaire.
Bronze clearly identifiable, with the legends COL and CABE complete and very clear. The obverse type is much wider than that of the reverse, which is particularly obvious on this example.
