One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Theoderich ND (1041-1055) from Bishopric of Basel made of Silver weighing 0.6 g is that it features an image of Theoderich, the bishop of Basel, on one side, and a cross on the other. This coin was minted during Theoderich's episcopacy, which lasted from 1041 to 1055, and it was likely used as a means of payment and exchange in the Bishopric of Basel and surrounding areas. Despite its small weight, this coin is a significant historical artifact that provides insight into the economic and religious practices of the time.
