Commentary

Cette petite obole s’insère dans la série 1286 pour “les fractions en argent des peuples de l’ouest”, mais se rapproche aussi de la série 1070 “bi-métallique type au carnyx” (bien que celle-ci ne comprenne pas d’oboles).
This small obol fits into the 1286 series for “the silver fractions of the peoples of the west”, but is also close to the 1070 “bi-metallic carnyx type” series (although this does not include d 'oboles)
