Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Philip I of France, who was known for his extensive coinage reforms. He introduced a new system of coinage that included the denier, which was a silver coin that was widely used throughout medieval Europe. The denier was divided into smaller units called liards, and it remained a standard coin in France until the 14th century. The fact that this coin was made of silver and weighs 1.19g suggests that it was a significant coin in its time and was likely used for large transactions.
