Commentary
La tête a les yeux formés par deux globules dans la volute des esses. La tête est surmontée de deux masses de cheveux ; même s’il s’agit d’une stylisation de la tête de face, elle est encore intelligible sur cet exemplaire. Jeuffrain classait ces monnaies, qui constituent la stylisation de la précédente, en la “2ème classe, 1ère division”.
