Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Denier Bracteate coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia is that it features an image of King Wenceslaus I on one side and a depiction of the Bohemian coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during Wenceslaus' reign, which lasted from 1230 to 1253, and was used as a standard circulation coin throughout the kingdom. The use of silver in the coin's composition adds to its historical significance and value, as silver was a highly valued metal during this time period.
