Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Heller ND (1300-1500) from City of Glogau (Silesia) made of Silver is that it was used as a form of currency in the city during the 14th to 16th centuries, and it was also used as a means of exchange in trade with other cities and regions. Despite being made of silver, the coin was not considered to be a high denomination coin, and it was used for everyday transactions. Its design featured the image of a city gate on one side and a shield with the city's coat of arms on the other.
