Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier (Flower, Wolf and Boar) ND (1200-1300) from City of Hagenau (French States) made of Silver is that it features a unique combination of motifs on its reverse side. The coin depicts a wolf, a boar, and a flower, which are not commonly found together on a single coin. The wolf and boar are shown in a naturalistic style, while the flower is depicted in a stylized manner, creating an interesting contrast between the realistic and abstract elements. This unique combination of motifs makes the coin stand out among other coins of its time and adds to its historical and numismatic significance.
