Interesting fact
The Denier anonyme (sede vacante) ND (1088-1106) from Bishopric of Halberstadt (German States) made of Silver is a rare and valuable coin, with only a few examples known to exist. It is believed that the coin was minted during a period of political instability in the region, when the bishopric was vacant, and the coin's anonymous design was likely intended to avoid offending any particular faction or ruler. As a result, the coin has become a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists and historians interested in the history of the German States.
