Comment
Heye 2637Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Adelmann Denier coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe, particularly in the German states. The coin was minted during the reign of Adelmann, who was the abbot of the Abbey of Hersfeld from 1114 to 1127. During this time, the abbey was a major center of power and influence in the region, and the coin likely played an important role in the abbey's economic and trade activities. Despite its small size and relatively low value, the coin is a significant artifact of this time period and provides valuable insights into the economic and political conditions of the region during this time.
