Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denier Bracteate coin from Hungary is that it features a unique design element known as a "bracteate cross," which is a cross with expanded terminals that resemble a flower or a star. This design was used on many coins during the reign of Béla IV and has become a distinctive feature of Hungarian coinage from this period.
