Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier Bracteate - Henry I ND (1263-1308) from Landgraviate of Hessen (German States) made of Silver weighing 0.43 g is that it features a unique blend of medieval Gothic and Romanesque architectural styles on its reverse side. The coin's reverse depicts a stylized representation of the Landgraviate of Hessen's coat of arms, which includes a shield with three lions passant (walking lions) and a crowned eagle above it. The use of these architectural styles and symbols on the coin reflects the cultural and artistic influences of the time period in which it was minted.
