Photo of a coin sold the 30/04/2009 by CGB.fr, MONNAIES 38, lot 1049, link to the sale: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=608944, link to their website: https://www.cgbfr.com/. The copyright stuck on the reverse of the coin has been withdrawn (with the agreement of CGB.fr), slightly modifying the actual visual from 5 to 6 o'clock at the bottom of the reverse of the coin.

I tried to establish a classification of the coins according to the breaks of the legends, marks and dots. Difficult because the details are often out of blank, some coins are perhaps with dots or even an invisible mark but present on the die original. In this case, I report it here.
