Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Casimir IV Jagiellon (Kraków) ND (1492-1501) from Kingdom of Poland made of Silver weighing 0.300 g is that it was minted during the reign of Casimir IV Jagiellon, who was the King of Poland from 1483 to 1501. He was known for his efforts to strengthen the Polish economy and military, and the minting of this coin was likely a part of those efforts. The coin's design and silver content would have been carefully chosen to ensure its value and authenticity, and its circulation would have been closely monitored to prevent counterfeiting. Today, this coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, offering a glimpse into the economic and political history of Poland during the late Middle Ages.
