Interesting fact
The Stephen III ND (1162-1172) Denier coin from Hungary made of Silver weighing 0.31 g is interesting because it was issued during a time of great turmoil in Hungary, with Stephen III facing challenges from rival claimants to the throne and external threats from neighboring kingdoms. Despite these challenges, the coinage issued during his reign, including this denier, remained consistent in its design and quality, reflecting the stability and resilience of the Hungarian monetary system during this period.
