It seems that the dies of these coins have been re-used for Charles II The Bald, therefore it is impossible to differentiate the coins. These coins will be classified under the two kings with this same comment.

The only difference between type 1, var 1 and type 1, var 2 is the letter S inclined on the obverse.
