Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Ladislaus II Jagiellon Denier coin is that it features a unique blend of Christian and pagan imagery. The obverse side of the coin depicts a crowned King Ladislaus II holding a scepter and an orb, while the reverse side features a representation of the Polish coat of arms, which includes a white eagle on a red background. This blending of religious and national symbols reflects the cultural and religious diversity of the Kingdom of Poland during the 14th century.
