Alde's copy appears to show a globule to the right of the letter F on the obverse. One copy preserved at the Münzkabinett der Staatlichen Museen of Berlin, link to the page of their website showing the photo of the coin: http://www.smb-digital.de/eMuseumPlus?service=ExternalInterface&module=collection&objectId=2373853&viewType=detailView. This copy has no globule to the right of the letter F. No reason to create a ''var'' line for one of the two coins, that of Alde being too worn with the details (maybe different from the 'copy of Berlin) deleted or off blank. A third copy, totally similar, is present in this same museum. These two copies are also similar to the illustrations of old works (same die break in front of the letter F). Coin also attributable toBourges (abbey of Saint-Étienne).
