Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Henry X ND (1126-1138) from Duchy of Bavaria (German States) made of Silver weighing 0.95 g is that it was minted during the reign of Henry X, also known as Henry the Proud, who was the Duke of Bavaria from 1126 to 1138. This coin was used as a means of payment and exchange during his rule, and it features an image of Henry X on one side and a cross on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a sign of the wealth and power of the Bavarian duchy during that time.
