Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in France, known as the "Anarchy" period, which lasted from 1150 to 1250. This was a time of civil war, feudal rivalries, and power struggles between the king and the nobility. Despite the chaos, the Viscounty of Albi, where this coin was minted, managed to maintain a level of independence and economic stability, which is reflected in the quality and craftsmanship of this coin.
