Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe, particularly in the Holy Roman Empire. The coin was issued by the Duchy of Olomouc, which was a small territory in Moravia, now part of the Czech Republic. Despite its small size, the duchy played a significant role in the political and economic landscape of the region during the 11th to 12th centuries. The coin's silver content and the unknown ruler featured on it suggest that it was a valuable and important form of currency during this time period.
