Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Philippe I, who was also known as Philippe le Noble, and was a member of the House of Hainaut. He was the Count of Namur from 1196 until his death in 1212, and this coin was likely minted during that time. The fact that it is made of silver and weighs 0.78 grams suggests that it was a valuable and significant coin during its time.
