Commentary

Sur les trois exemplaires répertoriés par Georges Depeyrot, deux proviennent du trésor de Fécamp. Avec cinq points séparant la légende de revers et avec la légende longue au droit, ce type est à comparer au n° 8359 de ce trésor, mais il est issu de coins différents.
Of the three examples listed by Georges Depeyrot, two come from the Fécamp treasure. With five dots separating the legend on the reverse and with the long legend on the obverse, this type is comparable to No. 8359 of this treasure, but it comes from different dies.
