The Denier - Géza II ND (1141-1162) coin from Hungary was minted during the reign of King Géza II, who was a member of the Árpád dynasty, which ruled Hungary for over 400 years. This coin was used as a means of payment and exchange during that time, and its design features the king's name and title in Latin, as well as a cross symbol on the reverse side, which represents the Christian faith that was prevalent in Hungary during that period.
