Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier Bracteate ND from City of Göttingen (German States) made of Silver weighing 0.38 g is that it was minted during the reign of King Henry II, who ruled the Holy Roman Empire from 1002 to 1024. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which were designed to promote trade and commerce throughout the empire. The coin's design features a cross on one side and the king's name on the other, symbolizing the connection between the church and the state. Despite its small size, this coin played an important role in the economy of the time and is now a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
