Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Denaro coin from the Kingdom of Sicily is that it features an image of King Manfredi, who was a member of the Hohenstaufen dynasty and ruled Sicily from 1258 to 1266. Despite being a relatively small coin, it has a rich history and is a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in medieval European coins.
