Interesting fact

The ½ Penning coin from Norway, minted between 1105 and 1130, is interesting because it was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time. This coin was also used widely in trade and commerce, and its design featured a unique combination of letters and symbols that identified its place of origin and value. Additionally, the fact that it was minted for such a long period of time (1105-1130) suggests that it was a popular and reliable form of currency during that era.
