Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Ladislaus I the Short (Kraków) Denier Bracteate is that it features a unique blend of Polish and Hungarian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of a crowned king, likely Ladislaus I, while the reverse side features a depiction of a mounted knight holding a shield with the Polish eagle emblem. This blend of Polish and Hungarian elements reflects the complex political and cultural ties between the two regions during the early 14th century.
