Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Conrad I. ND (1120-1130) from Bishopric of Regensburg (German States) made of Silver weighing 0.98 g is that it features a unique design, with the obverse side bearing the image of a bishop, likely Conrad I, while the reverse side features a cross with four pelicans, symbolizing the four evangelists. This design was common in medieval coins and represents the connection between the church and the state.
