Interesting fact
The Denier - Béla IV ND (1235-1270) coin from Hungary made of Silver weighing 0.81 g is interesting because it was issued during the reign of King Béla IV, who was forced to flee to the Holy Roman Empire after the Mongol invasion of Hungary in 1241. Despite this, he was able to return to Hungary in 1246 and regain his throne, and his coinage, including the Denier, continued to be used throughout his reign.
