Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier ND (1201-1250) from Bishopric of Geneva made of Silver weighing 0.78 g is that it was minted during a time of great religious and political significance in the region. The Bishopric of Geneva was a powerful and influential entity in the 13th century, and the coin's design and production were likely overseen by the Bishop himself. The use of silver in the coin's minting also speaks to the wealth and resources available to the Bishopric at the time.
