Commentary

Ce denier n’est pas attribué à un atelier spécifique. Le motif du revers peut faire penser à certaines séries de l’atelier de Melle. Pour certains numismates il s’agirait de Paris.
This denarius is not attributed to a specific mint. The reverse motif may suggest certain series from the Melle mint. For some numismatists, it would be Paris
