Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Vratislaus II ND (1061-1085) from Duchy of Olomouc (Moravia) made of Silver is that it features a unique design on its reverse side. While most coins of that time period depicted religious symbols or images of rulers, this coin features a stylized image of a horse, which was a symbol of strength and power in medieval culture. This design choice was likely intended to convey the power and prestige of the Duchy of Olomouc and its ruler, Vratislaus II.
