Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Ladislaus IV (klippe) Denier coin from Hungary is that it features a unique design element known as a "klippe," which is a small, raised notch or cut-out on the coin's edge. This feature was added to the coin to prevent counterfeiting and to make it easier for people to tell genuine coins from fake ones. The klippe on this coin is shaped like a small cross, and it can be seen on the left side of the coin's obverse (front) side, just below the king's crown. This feature is a distinctive characteristic of Ladislaus IV coins and sets them apart from other coins of the time.
