Printed from what is known as the "silver type" possibly due to the story told by Pierre de S. Romuald that the matrices which he charges Robert Estienne with stealing were made of silver. They were probably bought at Frankfurt from type owned by Andreas Wechel. See Robert Proctor, "The French Royal Greek types and the Eton Chrysostom," in his Bibliographical Essays, 1905, p. 89-119.
