Commentary


Avec des légendes souvent fragmentaires, sur des flans irréguliers et toujours trop courts, il est difficile de proposer une attribution à une ville précise. Ces deniers sont originaires d’une aire au monnayage homogène qui devait déjà être difficile à différencier lorsque les monnaies circulaient !.
With often fragmentary legends, on irregular and always too short flans, it is difficult to propose an attribution to a specific city. These denarii originate from an area with a homogeneous coinage that must already have been difficult to differentiate when the coins circulated!
