Interesting fact

The Florin coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, with only a few known to exist in such good condition. It's interesting to note that the coin was minted during the reign of Vladislaus II, who was the King of Hungary and Bohemia, and was known for his efforts to strengthen the Hungarian economy and military. The coin's design features the king's portrait on one side and the Hungarian coat of arms on the other, making it a unique piece of history.
