Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Adalrich II ND (1025-1040) from Bishopric of Basel made of Silver weighing 0.81 g is that it features a unique design, with an image of a bishop on one side and a cross on the other, which was a common design element for coins during the Middle Ages.
