Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of two rulers, Stephan III and his son Louis VII, on the same coin. This was a common practice during the Middle Ages, where coins were often issued with the images of multiple rulers to signify their joint rule or succession. The fact that this coin is made of silver and weighs 0.47g also highlights its value and significance during the time it was minted.
