Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Emperor Charles IV, who was also the Margrave of Brandenburg from 1351 to 1373. This coin is a rare example of a silver denier that was minted during this time period, as most coins from this era were made of base metals. Additionally, the coin features a unique design, with a crowned lion on one side and a cross on the other, which sets it apart from other coins of the time.
