Interesting fact
The coin , the Brûlé - Louis of Bourbon ND (1456-1466) from the Prince-bishopric of Liege (Belgian States), is a rare and valuable coin. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the region. The Prince-bishopric of Liege was a small state located in what is now modern-day Belgium, and it was constantly struggling for independence from its larger neighbors. Despite this, the coinage of the region remained consistent and of high quality, making it a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
