Comment
Ref. S#180.Interesting fact
The Heller coin from the City of Liegnitz (Silesia) made of Silver weighing 0.28 g is interesting because it was used as a form of currency during the Renaissance period in Europe, specifically in the 15th century. It's fascinating to think that this small silver coin was once used to purchase goods and services, and it's a reminder of the rich history of trade and commerce during that time.
