Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Charles Robert ND (1333-1338) from Hungary made of Silver weighing 0.35 g is that it was minted during the reign of Charles Robert, who was the king of Hungary and Croatia from 1308 to 1342. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, and it features an image of the king on one side and a cross on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a significant departure from the previous coins minted in Hungary, which were made of copper. This change in material was likely due to the increasing value of silver in Europe during this time period.
