Interesting fact

The Denier - Jaromir ND (1003-1034) coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia was made of silver, but it was also one of the first coins to use a new technology called "milled" edges. This meant that the edges of the coin were not just smooth, but had a series of grooves or reeding that made it harder for people to shave off small pieces of the precious metal. This innovation helped to prevent counterfeiting and made the coin more durable.
