Commentary
S'il est probable, par élimination, que le personnage du revers est effectivement ce que le graveur pouvait imaginer comme un rabbin, le lien avec la Chambre aux Deniers reste à faire.
While it is likely, by process of elimination, that the character on the reverse is indeed what the engraver could have imagined as a rabbi, the link with the Chamber of Coins remains to be made.
