Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Ottokar II ND (1247-1278) from Unified Moravia and Margraviate made of Silver is that it features a unique blend of Romanesque and Gothic styles in its design, reflecting the cultural and artistic influences of the time. The coin's obverse side depicts a crowned king, likely Ottokar II, with a scepter in his right hand and a globe in his left, while the reverse side shows a shield with the Moravian eagle and the margraviate's coat of arms. This coin is a rare and valuable example of medieval numismatics, providing insight into the economic, political, and artistic achievements of the Unified Moravia and Margraviate during the 13th century.
