Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Piotr Wszeborzyc, who was the Palatyn (a high-ranking noble) of Kruszwica or Strzelno in the Duchy of Greater Poland (now part of Poland) in the late 12th century. Despite being a standard circulation coin, it was made of silver, which was a valuable and prestigious metal at the time.
