Commentary
Ce teston est un très bel exemple de la numismatique de la renaissance européenne. Ce teston existe aussi avec un buste juvénile de Guillaume II mais il est beaucoup plus rare encore.
This coin is a very fine example of European Renaissance numismatics. This coin also exists with a juvenile bust of William II, but it is much rarer still.
