Interesting fact
The Denier Parisis - Philip VI (Type 2) ND (1343) coin from France was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Philip VI, who was the first French king to issue a standardized coinage that was used throughout his kingdom. This coin was part of that standardized system and was used widely in trade and commerce. Despite its small size and relatively low value, the coin played an important role in the economy of medieval France and is now a sought-after collector's item for numismatists.
