Comment
Weight varies: 1523: 6,60; 1525: 7,50Interesting fact
The Pattern Denier - Louis II (Piedfort) 1523-1525 from Hungary made of Silver weighing 7.10 g is a rare and valuable coin, with only a few known examples surviving to this day. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique pattern, with a crowned shield on the obverse (front) side and a cross on the reverse (back) side, which was not commonly used on coins during that time period. This makes it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
