Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in France, specifically during the reign of King Philip I, who ruled from 1060 to 1108. This period saw the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, which had a significant impact on the political and economic landscape of France and Europe as a whole. Despite these challenges, the Viscounty of Châteaudun was able to maintain its independence and continue minting its own coins, such as this Denier anonymous (crosslets) coin.
