Interesting fact

The Denier coin of Mieszko II Lambert, who ruled the Kingdom of Poland from 1013 to 1024, was the first silver coin to be introduced in Poland. It was a significant innovation in the country's monetary system, as it replaced the earlier bartering system and introduced a standardized form of currency. The coin was also used as a means of promoting trade and commerce within the kingdom, and it played an important role in the development of the Polish economy during that time.
