comtals
A comtal is a historical monetary unit used in various regions, particularly in parts of Europe and the Middle East, during medieval and early modern periods. The term's origin is often linked to the concept of a "count" or "earl," suggesting a denomination that might have been associated with the authority or finances of a local noble. The value and composition of a comtal could vary significantly depending on the time and place of its issuance.
Historically, comtals were often minted in silver or gold, reflecting their importance as a medium of exchange
