Comment
Imitation of the denarii of Otto III and Adelaide (see link below). Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of King Otto III, who was only 14 years old when he ascended to the throne. Despite his young age, he was known for his intelligence and ambition, and he played a significant role in shaping the Holy Roman Empire during his reign.
