Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Emperor Frederick I, also known as Frederick Barbarossa, who ruled the Holy Roman Empire from 1155 to 1190. Frederick I was known for his military campaigns and his efforts to consolidate power within the empire, and this coin may have been minted as a way to finance his military campaigns or to promote his image and authority.
