Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Simon I (Remiremont) ND (1115-1139) from Duchy of Lorraine (French States) made of Silver is that it features a unique design on its reverse side. The coin's reverse depicts a cross fleury, which is a cross with fleur-de-lis at the ends, surrounded by the inscription "SIT NOMEN DOMINI BENEDICTUM" (Blessed be the name of the Lord). This design was used during the reign of Simon I, who was the Duke of Lorraine from 1115 to 1139. The use of the cross fleury on the coin was a symbol of the Duke's Christian faith and his connection to the Catholic Church.
