Commentary

Pour ce type, M. Crawford a relevé une estimation de dix-sept coins de droit et de vingt-et-un coins de revers. Ce type est en fait beaucoup plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux.
For this type, Mr. Crawford noted an estimate of seventeen upright dies and twenty-one reverse dies. This type is in fact much rarer than general literature suggests.
