Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Premislaus I, the first Duke of Greater Poland, on one side, and a cross on the other. This coin was minted during his reign, which lasted from 1247 to 1257, and it was used as a standard circulation coin in the Polish States. Despite being made of silver, this coin is relatively lightweight, weighing only 0.491 grams.
