Commentary
Ce denier a été publié dans les RTSENA 6 et dans le RTSENA 7, n° 1943, p. 204. Bruno Foucray a démontré dans les Cahiers numismatiques de décembre 2023 que le motif du revers, avec le personnage tenant deux croix, est apparu principalement dans le Kent au début du VIIIe siècle. Il attribue cette monnaie à Chartres, notamment parce que ce personnage est repris vers 754-758 sur certains deniers de Pépin le Bref avec la légende CARN pour Carnotis (Chartres) et sur des deniers de Charlemagne frappés vers 768-775 avec la légende KARN.
