Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Henry IV, who was the Holy Roman Emperor from 1056 to 1084. During his reign, Henry IV faced several challenges, including conflicts with the Church and the nobility, and was forced to abdicate in 1084. Despite these challenges, the coinage issued during his reign, such as this denier, remained an important symbol of his authority and the power of the Holy Roman Empire.
