Comment
C.II.: 97Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Louis I ND (1358) from Hungary made of Silver weighing 0.27 g is that it was minted during the reign of King Louis I of Hungary, who ruled from 1342 to 1382. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which were used to promote trade and commerce in the region. The use of silver in the coin's composition was a significant departure from the previous coins minted in Hungary, which were made of copper or billon (a mixture of copper and silver). The introduction of silver coins helped to stabilize the Hungarian economy and increase trade with other European countries.
