Interesting fact
The Albert ND (1438-1440) Denier coin from Hungary made of Silver weighing 0.50 g is interesting because it was issued during the reign of Albert II of Habsburg, who was the King of Hungary and Bohemia, and later became the Holy Roman Emperor. This coin was used as a means of payment during his reign and is a rare and valuable collector's item today.
