Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Ladislaus I the Elbow-high (Kraków) ND (1306-1333) silver denier coin from the Kingdom of Poland is that it features a unique design element - the king's crown is depicted as being worn high on the head, giving the coin its "elbow-high" nickname. This design choice was likely made to emphasize the king's authority and power.
