Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Ladislaus I Herman Denier coin is that it features a unique combination of Christian and pagan elements in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a cross, which symbolizes the Christian faith, while the reverse side features a image of a pagan deity, possibly the Slavic god Swiatowit, who was worshipped in the pre-Christian era. This blending of religious symbols reflects the cultural and religious diversity of the Kingdom of Poland during the 11th century.
