Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Conrad I (Regensburg) (911-918) from Kingdom of East Francia (Carolingian Empire) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Europe. The Carolingian Empire, which was established by Charlemagne in the 8th century, was in decline during the early 10th century, and the Kingdom of East Francia, which was one of its successor states, was facing challenges from neighboring kingdoms and internal power struggles. Despite these challenges, the minting of coins like the Denier continued, indicating the importance of trade and commerce during this period.
