Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denier - Philippe Ier (Chalon ; quatre globules) ND (1060-1108) coin from France is that it features a unique design element known as the "quatre globules" or "four globes," which are small spheres that appear on the coin's reverse side, surrounding the central image of the king. This design was used during the reign of Philip I, who ruled France from 1060 to 1108, and was meant to symbolize the four evangelists or the four corners of the earth. The coin's design and the use of silver as its material were meant to convey the power and wealth of the French monarchy during this time period.
