Interesting fact

The Denier coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia, which was minted during the reign of Jaromir (1003-1034), was made of silver and had a unique feature. It was one of the first coins in Europe to feature a portrait of the ruling monarch on one side and a religious image on the other. This was a departure from the traditional practice of featuring mythological or allegorical figures on coins, and marked a shift towards more realistic and representational designs.
