Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the names of two rulers, Borivoj II and Vratislaus II, which suggests that it was issued during a period of co-rule or succession between the two. This is a unique aspect of this coin, as many coins from this time period typically featured only one ruler. Additionally, the fact that it was made of silver, a valuable and durable metal, speaks to the wealth and resources of the Duchy of Olomouc (Moravia) during this time.
