Commentary

Avec un tel droit il est difficile d’y voir une tête. mais la composition de la monnaie S. 345 rend plus compréhensibles les trois masses (chevelure, cou et joue). Le revers correspond aussi à cette monnaie, avec un très gros globule au centre de la croix et de longues lunules qui ferment presque la roue (cf. S. 499-500).
With such a right it is difficult to see a head. But the composition of the coin S. 345 makes the three masses (hair, neck and cheek) more understandable. The reverse also corresponds to this coin, with a very large globule in the center of the cross and long lunules that almost close the wheel (cf. S. 499-500)
