BRP Prusy T13.1Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier Bracteate - Anonymous ND (1353-1360) 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, which swept through Europe in the 14th century, killing millions of people. Despite the devastating impact of the plague, the Teutonic Order continued to mint coins like this one, which were used to facilitate trade and commerce in the regions under their control.
