Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Bernhard I ND (973-1011) from Duchy of Saxony (German States) made of Silver weighing 1.34 g is that it was minted during the reign of Bernard I, who was the Duke of Saxony from 973 to 1011. This coin was used as a means of exchange and commerce during his rule, and it features an image of the duke on one side and a cross on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a sign of the duchy's wealth and power at the time.
