Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Ladislaus I the Elbow-high Denier coin is that it features a unique design element - the king's crown is depicted as being worn on the top of his elbow, rather than on his head. This peculiar design choice has led to the coin being nicknamed the "Elbow-high Denier."
