Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denier Tournois - Francis II 1585 coin from the Principality of Dombes (French States) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Principality on the reverse side, which sets it apart from other coins of the same denomination issued by the French crown.
