Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denier - Arnulf (Mainz) (887-899) coin is that it features a unique design element - a cross symbol on the reverse side, which was a departure from the traditional Carolingian Empire design of a crowned bust of the king on the obverse and a cross on the reverse. This design change may have been a deliberate choice to emphasize the coin's connection to the Christian faith and the power of the Church during that time.
