Commentary
Ce rare potin (peu d’exemplaires sont passés en vente) n'est connu qu'à quelques exemplaires ; trois seulement étaient conservés à la BN, il semble manquer à tous les autres musées publiés consultés y compris au "Catalogue de monnaies gauloises du British Museum et d'autres collections britanniques" par Derek Allen. S. Scheers dans son inventaire ne reprenait que les trois exemplaires conservés à la BN et illustrait dans son Traité le même exemplaire que celui qui fut gravé par Dardel au XIXe siècle pour illustrer le LA TOUR.
