Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Bruno ND (1006-1029) from Bishopric of Augsburg (German States) made of Silver weighing 1.25 g is that it was minted during the reign of Bishop Bruno of Augsburg, who was known for his efforts to promote economic growth and trade in the region. The coin's design features the bishop's crown and crosier on one side, and a cross with four pelicans on the other, symbolizing the bishop's role as a spiritual leader and protector of his flock. Despite its small size, this coin played an important role in the local economy and is now a sought-after collector's item for numismatists interested in medieval European coins.
