Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier or Rappen ND (1426-1490) from City of Colmar (French States) made of Silver weighing 0.36 g is that it was minted during the reign of King Louis XI of France, who was known for his efforts to centralize power and create a uniform currency system throughout his kingdom. This coin, which was used in the French States, is a testament to his efforts and a reflection of the economic and political changes that were taking place during that time period.
