Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier Bracteate - Eberhard II of Waldburg-Thann ND (1250-1270) from Bishopric of Constance (German States) made of Silver weighing 0.46 g is that it features a unique blend of religious and secular imagery. The obverse side of the coin depicts a cross, symbolizing the Christian faith, while the reverse side features a shield with the coat of arms of the Bishopric of Constance, representing the secular authority of the region.
