Comment
Formerly called a double Denier.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Groschen Spadin coin from the Duchy of Lorraine is that it features a unique design element - a small cross pattée (a cross with arms that are narrow at the center and broaden towards the ends) on the reverse side, which was a distinctive feature of coins issued by Theobald II during his reign.
