BRP Prusy T14.5Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier Bracteate - Anonymous ND (1360-1364) from Teutonic Order (German States) made of Billon weighing 0.13 g is that it features a unique blend of Christian and pagan imagery. The obverse side of the coin depicts a cross, which symbolizes the Christian faith, while the reverse side features a image of a bracteate, which is a type of medieval ornament that was believed to have magical powers. This blending of religious and superstitious symbols reflects the cultural and religious diversity of the Teutonic Order during this time period.
