Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Berengar I, who was the King of Italy and later the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. He was known for his efforts to unify Italy and defend it against external threats, and this coin may have been used as a symbol of his power and authority.
