Interesting fact

The Stephen V ND (1270-1272) Denier coin from Hungary made of Silver weighing 0.46 g is interesting because it is a rare example of a coin that was issued during a time of great turmoil in Hungary's history. The coin was minted during the reign of Stephen V, who was the king of Hungary from 1270 to 1272. This was a time of great political instability and conflict in Hungary, with the kingdom facing threats from neighboring powers and internal strife. Despite these challenges, the minting of this coin suggests that the kingdom was still able to produce currency and maintain some level of economic stability during this period.
