Comment
Kilger MOL A 5:1/1 var.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Henry IV ND (1056-1106) from Holy Roman Empire made of Silver weighing 0.85 g is that it was minted during the reign of Henry IV, who was the Holy Roman Emperor from 1056 to 1106. This coin was used as a means of currency during his reign and features an image of the emperor on one side and a cross on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a significant departure from the previous use of copper and was a symbol of the empire's wealth and power.
