Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Denier Tournois - Mary 1620-1624 coin from the Principality of Dombes 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 States during that time period.
