Interesting fact

The Denier coin from Hungary, issued during the reign of Géza I (1074-1077), was made of silver and weighed 0.68 grams. Despite its small size, this coin was an important part of the Hungarian currency system during the Middle Ages, and it remained in circulation for centuries. Today, it is a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists, with some rare examples selling for thousands of dollars at auction.
