Interesting fact

The Obol coin from the Province of Slavonia (Hungarian States) made of Silver weighing 0.42 g during the reign of Andrew III (1290-1301) is interesting because it was used as a means of exchange in a region that was once part of the medieval Kingdom of Hungary. Despite its small weight, it still held significant value as a form of currency during that time.
