Interesting fact
The Andrew II Denier coin from Hungary, made of silver and weighing 0.61g, is interesting because it was issued during a time of great change and turmoil in Hungary. Andrew II was the king of Hungary from 1205 to 1235, and his reign saw the establishment of the feudal system and the rise of the powerful Hungarian nobility. Despite these challenges, the coinage of Andrew II's reign remained consistent and of high quality, with the Denier being a popular and widely used coin throughout Europe.
