Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Meginhard I, who was the Bishop of Würzburg from 1018 to 1034. This coin is a rare example of a silver denier that was produced during his episcopate, and it is considered a valuable collector's item among numismatists today.
