Comment of Jean Elsen & ses Fils S.A. about this copy ''Trouvé en Grande-Bretagne en 2011 (EMC 2011.0184). Ce type au saint Chéron ayant aussi été frappé sous Pépin le Bref, il doit sans doute s'agir de la première émission au nom de Charlemagne dans l'atelier de Chartres.''. Traduction: Found in Great Britain in 2011 (EMC 2011.0184). This type with Saint Chéron having also been struck under Pepin the short, it must undoubtedly be the first issue in the name of Charlemagne in the mint of Chartres.
