Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Philip I of France, who was known for his extensive coinage reforms. He introduced a new standardized system of coinage, which included the denier, a silver coin that was widely used throughout medieval Europe. The denier was divided into smaller units, such as the liard and the sou, making it easier for people to conduct financial transactions. This coin is a rare example of a denier from Philip I's reign and is highly sought after by collectors.
