Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Ludolphe (Brisach) ND (949-954) from Duchy of Swabia (German States) made of Silver is that it features a unique design on its reverse side. The coin's reverse features a depiction of a lion, which was a symbol of the Duchy of Swabia, surrounded by a circle of dots. This design was used to represent the coin's denomination and to distinguish it from other coins in circulation. The use of a lion as a symbol of the Duchy of Swabia can be traced back to the 10th century, and it was a common motif on coins issued by the duchy during this period.
