Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great political turmoil in Hungary. The reign of King Andrew III (1290-1301) was marked by conflicts with the powerful nobility and the struggle for control over the kingdom. Despite these challenges, the coinage of this period, including the Denier coin minted by István Babonich Bán, remained consistent in its design and quality, reflecting the stability and resilience of the Hungarian monetary system during this time.
