Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, particularly in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin was issued by the Archbishopric of Besançon, which was a powerful ecclesiastical state in the empire. The coin's minting was likely a response to the economic and political instability of the time, as the empire was facing challenges from external threats and internal conflicts. Despite these challenges, the coin's production suggests that the Archbishopric of Besançon was able to maintain some level of economic and political stability during this period.
