Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Rudolf (Piedfort) 1607 Denier coin from Hungary is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the Hungarian coat of arms, which was not commonly seen on coins of that time period. This adds a touch of national pride and identity to the coin, making it a distinctive and valuable collector's item.
