Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denier - Lothair II (Pavia) (947-950) coin is that it features a unique design element - a small cross on the reverse side, which was a distinctive feature of coins minted during Lothair II's reign. This cross was added to the coin's design to symbolize the king's Christian faith and to differentiate his coins from those of his predecessors.
