Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Louis I of Hungary (Kraków) ND (1370-1382) from Kingdom of Poland made of Silver is that it was used as a form of currency during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin was issued during the reign of Louis I of Hungary, who was also known as Louis the Great, and it was used to facilitate trade and commerce within the Kingdom of Poland and beyond. Despite being made of silver, the coin was not particularly valuable, with its value being equivalent to a small fraction of a modern-day dollar. However, its historical significance and rarity make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
