Commentary


Cet exemplaire offre une tête typique de la classe II. En essayant de reconstituer les coins, à partir d'autres exemplaires ; nous arriverions à une empreinte de coin de droit d'au moins 18 mm et d'au moins 20 mm pour le coin de revers, alors même que les flans ne dépassent jamais les 15 mm.
This specimen offers a typical Class II head. By trying to reconstruct the dies from other specimens, we would arrive at a right die impression of at least 18 mm and at least 20 mm for the reverse die, even though the flans never exceed 15 mm.
