Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Boleslaus IV the Curly (Kraków) ND (1166-1173) from Kingdom of Poland made of Silver weighing 0.35 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 inclusion of the Polish coat of arms symbolizing the growing influence of Christianity and the strengthening of the Polish state.
