Interesting fact
The Charles Robert ND (1308-1322) Denier coin from Hungary was made of silver, which was a significant departure from the usual copper or bronze used in circulation coins at the time. This was due to a shortage of copper and bronze during Charles Robert's reign, which led to the use of alternative metals like silver and gold in some of the coins minted during this period. This makes the coin a unique and interesting piece of numismatic history.
