Interesting fact
The 1 Denier coin from Hungary, featuring Leopold I and made of silver, was minted during a time of great economic change in the country. In the early 18th century, Hungary was experiencing a period of rapid urbanization and industrialization, which led to a growing need for a standardized system of currency. The introduction of the 1 Denier coin, which was equal to 1/12 of a silver Thaler, helped to establish a uniform currency system across the country and facilitate trade and commerce.
