Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Denier - Louis IV the Child (Strasbourg) (899-911) coin is that it features a unique design element - a small cross on the reverse side, which was added to the coin's design during Louis IV's reign. This cross was not present on earlier coins issued by Louis IV, and its addition may have been a deliberate choice to symbolize the king's devotion to Christianity.
