Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Denier Bracteate (Ravensburg) ND (1295) from the Holy Roman Empire is that it features a unique combination of Christian and pagan symbols. On one side, the coin bears the image of the Virgin Mary and the Christ child, while on the other side, it features a depiction of a raven, which was a symbol of the Germanic god Odin. This blending of religious symbols reflects the cultural and religious diversity of the Holy Roman Empire during the 13th century.
