Commentary

Unique émission de Crispus à Constantinople avant son élimination. Ce type, déjà extrêment rare, semble encore plus difficile à trouver pour la première officine !.
Crispus's only issue in Constantinople before its discontinuation. This type, already extremely rare, seems even harder to find for the first mint!
