Interesting fact
The Denier - Leopold VI ND (1198-1230) coin from the Duchy of Austria (Austrian States) was minted during a time of great change in Europe. It was issued during the reign of Leopold VI, who was the Duke of Austria from 1198 to 1230. This was a period of significant political and economic upheaval, as the Holy Roman Empire was beginning to break apart and the concept of feudalism was becoming more widespread. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the craftsmanship of medieval coin makers.
