Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Boleslaus IV the Curly (Kraków) ND (1157-1166) from Kingdom of Poland made of Silver weighing 0.33 g is that it features a unique design, with the king's name written in Latin on one side and the Polish coat of arms on the other. This coin was issued during a time of great change in Poland, as the country was transitioning from a tribal society to a more centralized kingdom. The coin's design reflects this shift, with the use of Latin and the Polish coat of arms symbolizing the blending of traditional and modern influences.
