Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great religious and political change in Europe. The Bishopric of Lausanne (Vaud) was a significant religious institution during the Middle Ages, and the coin's minting during this period suggests that it may have played an important role in the economic and financial transactions of the time. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's production indicates that it was a valuable and sought-after material in the region.
