Interesting fact

The Denier - Stephen V ND (1270-1272) coin from Hungary made of Silver weighing 0.49 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 reign is remembered for the introduction of a new currency system, which included the Denier coin.
