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 paved the way for the use of coins as a medium of exchange. The coin was also an important symbol of the king's power and influence, and it helped to establish Poland as a major player in European trade and commerce.
