One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Charles Robert ND (1333-1338) from Hungary made of Silver weighing 0.40 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, which were used to promote trade and commerce in the region. The use of silver in the coin's composition was a significant departure from the previous coins minted in Hungary, which were made of base metals. This change in material was likely done to increase the coin's value and stability, as silver was considered a more valuable and reliable metal at the time.
