Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Obole ND (1301-1400) from Bishopric of Geneva is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Bishop Adhémar de Monteil, who was a powerful and influential figure in the region. The Obole was a widely used denomination at the time, and its production was an important part of the local economy. Despite its small size, the coin has a rich history and is a valuable piece for collectors today.
