Commentary
Denier anépigraphe au revers attribuable au Mans en raison des deux personnages du droit mais ceux-ci peuvent également se retrouver pour d’autres ateliers, reprenant de motifs de “sceattas” comme certains deniers attribués à Chartres ou à région de Trèves. L’attribution au Mans demeure incertaine faute de pouvoir lire la légende du droit.
An epigraph denier on the reverse attributable to Le Mans because of the two figures on the obverse, but these can also be found for other workshops, using “sceattas” motifs like certain deniers attributed to Chartres or the Trier region. The attribution to Le Mans remains uncertain due to the inability to read the legend on the obverse.
