Commentary
Avec son argenture superficielle. Portrait de très haut relief. Cet exemplaire ne semble pas surfrappé sur un follis plus ancien comme c’est souvent le cas. Dernière année de frappe.
With its superficial silver plating. Very high relief portrait. This example does not appear to have been over-struck on an older follicle, as is often the case. Last year of minting
