Interesting fact

The Denier - Vladislaus I ND (1442) coin from Hungary made of Billon weighing 1.05 g is interesting because it was issued during the reign of King Vladislaus I of Hungary, who ruled from 1440 to 1444. He was a member of the House of Jagellon, a powerful royal dynasty that ruled several Eastern European countries, including Poland, Lithuania, and Hungary. The coin's design likely features an image of the king, and its issuance would have been an important event during his reign.
