Commentary

Poids léger. Pour ce type, M. Crawford signale une estimation de 80 coins de droit et 100 coins de revers. Ce type semble plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux.
Lightweight. For this type, Mr. Crawford reports an estimate of 80 right dies and 100 reverse dies. This type seems rarer than general works suggest.
