Commentary

Cette obole bractéate appartient au groupe de Touraine. l’un des globules semble posé sur un trait irrégulier, mais ce trait pourrait résulter d’une cassure de coin et couplmé avec le globule peut faire penser à un Y.
This bracteate obol belongs to the Touraine group. One of the globules appears to be placed on an irregular line, but this line could result from a corner break and coupled with the globule could suggest a Y
