Interesting fact
The coin is quite rare and valuable, with only a few known examples existing in collections today. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in the region. The Prince-bishopric of Liege was a small state in what is now Belgium, and it was struggling to maintain its independence in the face of encroachment from larger powers. Despite these challenges, the coinage of the Prince-bishopric of Liege remained a symbol of its sovereignty and economic strength.
