Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier anonyme (Sarrebourg) ND (1104-1115) from Bishopric of Metz (French States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Bishop Adalberon II, who was known for his efforts to promote trade and commerce in the region. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a significant departure from the traditional use of copper or bronze in coinage at the time, and it reflects the growing wealth and influence of the Bishopric of Metz. Despite its age, this coin remains a valuable and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
