Comment
W. R. O. Hahn, "Moneta Radasponensis" #138Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Liutolf ND (989-995) Denier coin from the Bishopric of Augsburg is that it features a unique design element - a small cross pattée on the reverse side, which was a distinctive feature of Liutolf's coinage. This small cross pattée has been identified as a symbol of the Christian faith and is considered a notable feature of this particular coin.
