BRP Prusy T11.20Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier Bracteate - Anonymous ND (1337-1345) from Teutonic Order (German States) made of Billon weighing 0.20 g is that it was used as a form of currency during the Black Death, a pandemic that devastated Europe in the 14th century. The coin's small size and light weight made it a convenient means of exchange during a time when many people were struggling to survive. Despite its small value, the coin played an important role in the economy of the time, allowing people to purchase essential goods and services.
