Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Henry II (Bamberg) ND (1002-1024) from Holy Roman Empire made of Silver is that it features a unique design element - a cross pattée, which is a type of cross with arms that are narrow at the center and broaden towards the ends. This design was a common feature on coins during the medieval period and was used to symbolize the Christian faith.
