Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Otto III, who was the Holy Roman Emperor from 983 to 1002. He was only 18 years old when he ascended to the throne and was known for his ambitious territorial expansion and military campaigns. Despite his young age, he was able to secure the throne and maintain power for nearly two decades, which was a significant achievement during a time of political instability and power struggles in Europe.
