Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Denier - Otto I (Toul) (936-962) from Kingdom of East Francia (Carolingian Empire) made of Silver is that it was minted during the reign of Otto I, also known as Otto the Great, who was the King of East Francia from 936 to 962 and Holy Roman Emperor from 962 until his death in 973. He was a powerful ruler who expanded the Carolingian Empire and played a significant role in shaping the political and economic landscape of Europe during the Middle Ages. The coin's design and minting process would have been overseen by the royal mint, and its production would have been an important part of the kingdom's economy and trade.
