Only one copy seen, in AU.
I found a difference in weight of 2 grams compared to known copies. I classify this coin as a heavy weight. In addition, cgb.fr tells us about this copy: '' Reverse with five leaves ''. I add that the copies weighing 7.40 grs seem to be with four leaves. Information however to be taken for informational purposes only, given that too few copies have been analyzed.
