Albert Michaud, "Les monnaies des princes-évêques de Bâle", 1905 #33Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier ND (1107-1191) from Bishopric of Basel made of Silver is that it was used as a form of currency during the Middle Ages in the Bishopric of Basel, which was a significant religious and political center in Europe during that time. The coin's design features the image of a bishop, which symbolizes the authority and power of the church. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's minting process signifies the value and wealth of the Bishopric of Basel.
