Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in France, known as the "Anarchy" period, which lasted from 1100 to 1225. During this time, the country was plagued by civil wars, feudal rivalries, and foreign invasions, which made it difficult for the government to maintain control over the currency. As a result, many different types of coins were minted by various authorities, including the Bishoprics of Valence and Die, which issued this particular coin. Despite the challenges of the time, this coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the resilience of the French people.
