Commentary

Monnaie obsidionale réalisée à partir de la découpe de vaisselle d’argent. Les lis placés en périphérie étaient destinés à éviter les rognages sur ces monnaies irrégulières.
Obsidial coinage made from cut silver dishes. The lilies placed on the periphery were intended to prevent trimming on these irregular coins.
