Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Henri V (Trèves) ND (1106-1125) from Holy Roman Empire made of Silver is that it features a unique design element - a cross with four pelicans on the reverse side. This design was a symbol of the Holy Roman Empire and was used on many coins during this time period. The use of pelicans on coins was a common motif in medieval Europe, as it was believed that pelicans had a special significance in Christian symbolism, representing the sacrifice and charity of Jesus Christ.
