- Comment -- The image is high quality but the background is very dirty. Can it be cleaned up a bit?--Godot13 (talk) 21:26, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
- Comment – Primary EV would be numismatic. Target article's text doesn't discuss this coin; description of it confined to infobox (and taken from Commons file description). Perhaps more info could be gleaned from the French WP entry? (Je ne parle....) Sca (talk) 22:09, 1 August 2015 (UTC)
