Interesting fact
The Denier - Stephen V ND (1270-1272) coin from Hungary made of Silver weighing 0.54 g is interesting because it was issued during the reign of King Stephen V, who was only 10 years old when he ascended to the throne. Despite his young age, he was able to maintain peace and stability in the kingdom, and his coinage reflects the economic prosperity of the time. The coin's design features the king's name and title in Latin, as well as a cross and a crescent moon, which symbolize the Christian and Islamic influences present in Hungary during that period.
