Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Sergius III (ROMA) ND (905-911) from Papal States made of Silver weighing 1.04 g is that it was minted during the reign of Pope Sergius III, who was known for his controversial papacy and his efforts to restore the power of the papacy after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. Despite his efforts, his papacy was marked by political turmoil and conflict, and his coinage reflects the economic and political instability of the time.
