Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Thierry II (Metz) ND (1005-1046) from Bishopric of Metz (French States) made of Silver is that it features an image of Thierry II, the Bishop of Metz, on one side, and a cross on the other. This coin was minted during Thierry II's episcopacy, which lasted from 1005 to 1046, and it was used as a means of payment and exchange in the Bishopric of Metz and surrounding regions. The use of silver in the coin's composition adds to its historical significance, as silver was a valuable and sought-after metal during this time period.
