Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Theoderic VII, who was a powerful count of Holland and Zeeland in the late 12th century. He played a significant role in the political and military affairs of the region, and his coinage reflects the economic and cultural influence of the County of Holland during that time.
