Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Charles III (Trier mint; temple) (911-923) from Lotharingia (Carolingian States) made of Silver is that it was minted during the reign of Charles III, also known as Charles the Simple, who was the King of West Francia from 898 to 922. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which were designed to promote trade and commerce throughout his kingdom. The coin features an image of a temple on one side and the king's name on the other, signifying the importance of religion and the monarch's authority. Despite being made of silver, this coin was not highly valued during its time and was primarily used for everyday transactions. Today, however, it is a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of medieval Europe.
