Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Vécilon ND (1084-1088) from Archbishopric of Mainz (German States) made of Silver is that it was minted during the reign of Archbishop Ruthard, who was known for his efforts to promote economic growth and stability in the region. The coin's design features the Archbishop's crown and crosier on one side, and a cross with four pelicans on the other, symbolizing charity and devotion. Despite being minted over 900 years ago, some of these coins remain in circulation among collectors today, a testament to their enduring historical and numismatic value.
