Interesting fact
The County of Girona, where this coin was minted, was a small county in the northwestern part of the Iberian Peninsula, in what is now modern-day Spain. It was established in the 8th century and existed until the 11th century, when it was absorbed into the larger kingdom of Aragon. The County of Girona was known for its rich agricultural land and its strategic location along the Pyrenees mountains, which made it an important center for trade and commerce. This coin, the Dinero (scales) ND (934-1035), was likely used for everyday transactions and trade within the County of Girona and surrounding regions. The fact that it was made of silver suggests that it was a valuable and durable coin, and its small weight of 0.3 grams makes it a unique and interesting artifact from the time period.
