Interesting fact
The Gold Florin anonymous ND (1342-1348) from Bishopric of Cambrai (French States) has a unique feature. It is one of the few coins from this time period that does not bear the name of the ruler or mint master, which was a common practice during the Middle Ages. This coin's anonymity has led numismatists to speculate about its origins and purpose, adding to its mystique and historical significance.
