Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Louis I of Hungary, who was also known as Louis the Great. He was a powerful king who ruled over a large territory that included not only Hungary but also Poland, Lithuania, and parts of modern-day Ukraine and Slovakia. Despite his powerful reign, this coin was issued during a time of economic struggle for the Kingdom of Poland, and it was made of silver, which was a valuable resource at the time.
