Même coin de droit que l’exemplaire du trésor de La Venera (n° 3850). Au revers, les caissons de l’autel ressemblent à des portes. Au centre du foyer, on semble voir une étoile.
Same obverse die as the copy from the La Venera treasure (no. 3850). On the reverse, the altar boxes resemble doors. In the center of the hearth, we seem to see a star.
