Comment
Guy de Faucigny (1078-1120) oder Humbert de Grammont (1120-1135)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier ND (1078-1135) from Bishopric of Geneva made of Silver is that it was minted during the reign of Bishop Arducius de Faucigny, who was known for his efforts to promote the use of silver coins in the region. This coin, which features the image of a bishop on one side and a cross on the other, was likely used for everyday transactions and represents an important part of the economic history of the Bishopric of Geneva during the Middle Ages.
