Comment
Unknown mint, though de Witte feels the style is that of MaastrichtInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Henry I ND (1190-1210) from Duchy of Brabant (Belgian States) made of Silver weighing 0.8 g is that it features a unique design, with a crowned bust of King Henry I on one side and a cross fleury on the other. This design was used during his reign and symbolized the king's power and influence. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's minting was a significant choice, as it was a valuable and durable metal that was widely accepted as a medium of exchange.
