Interesting fact

The Denier coin of Vladislaus I from the Kingdom of Bohemia, made of silver, is interesting because it was issued during a time of great change in Europe. The coin was minted between 1120 and 1125, a period when the Holy Roman Empire was facing challenges from rival powers and the Catholic Church was undergoing significant reforms. The coin's design, featuring a crowned king on one side and a cross on the other, reflects the political and religious influences of the time. Additionally, the use of silver in the coin's minting was a significant departure from the previous use of copper, indicating a shift towards more valuable and durable currency.
