Commentary
Tous les exemplaires dessinés dans le LA TOUR ont une représentation au droit, qu'il s'agisse de tête d'oiseau stylisée ou d'une couronne. Cet exemplaire uniface semble très rare.
All the examples drawn in LA TOUR have a representation on the obverse, whether it is a stylized bird's head or a crown. This single-sided example seems very rare.
