Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material that was commonly used for coins in the Middle Ages. The use of silver in coins was a sign of the coin's value and authenticity, and it helped to prevent counterfeiting. Additionally, the fact that this coin was made of silver suggests that it was likely used for large transactions or as a store of value, rather than for everyday purchases.
