One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier Bracteate - Werner of Eppstein ND (1259-1284) from Archbishopric of Mainz (German States) made of Silver weighing 0.36 g is that it features a unique blend of religious and secular imagery. The obverse side of the coin depicts Werner of Eppstein, the Archbishop of Mainz, while the reverse side features a cross and a crescent moon, symbolizing the unity of Christianity and Islam. This blend of imagery reflects the cultural and religious diversity of the region during the 13th century.
