Commentary
Denier de la plus grande rareté absent des ouvrages de référence et semblant unique publié dans les Cahiers Numismatiques n° 224 de juin 2020, Éric Vandenbosche “Un denier carolingien inédit de Soissons pour Carloman ou Charlemagne”. Selon cet article il s’agit d’une monnaie de Carloman Ier mais l’hypothèse d’une émission sous Charlemagne n’est pas exclue par cet auteur.
