The Denier - Matthias II (Piedfort) 1612 from Hungary 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 was minted during the reign of Matthias II, who was the King of Hungary and Croatia from 1608 to 1619. The coin's design features the king's portrait on one side and the Hungarian coat of arms on the other, making it a unique piece of numismatic history.
