Comment
BRP Prusy T21Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier Bracteate - Frederick of Sachsen ND (1490-1510) from Teutonic Order (German States) made of Billon weighing 0.19 g is that it features an image of Frederick of Saxony, the Grand Master of the Teutonic Order, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Teutonic Order on the other. This coin was minted during Frederick's reign as Grand Master, which lasted from 1490 to 1510, and it was used as a means of payment and exchange within the German States. Despite its small size and relatively low value, this coin is a significant historical artifact that provides insight into the economic and political systems of medieval Europe.
