Comment
BRP Prusy T20.4Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier Bracteate - Anonymous ND (1467-1490) from Teutonic Order (German States) made of Billon weighing 0.20 g is that it features a unique blend of Christian and pagan imagery. The obverse side of the coin depicts the Virgin Mary and the Child Jesus, while the reverse side features a image of a pagan deity, possibly a representation of the Roman goddess Diana. This blending of religious symbols reflects the cultural and religious diversity of the Teutonic Order and the German States during the 15th century.
