Interesting fact
The Denier - Henri II (Salzbourg) ND (985-995) coin from the Duchy of Bavaria (German States) made of Silver features a unique design element - a cross pattée, which is a type of cross with arms that are narrow at the center and broader at the ends, resembling a patte or paw. This design was commonly used in medieval art and architecture, particularly in the Romanesque period, and can be seen on various coins and artifacts from that time.
