Interesting fact

The Obol coin from Hungary, minted during the reign of Charles Robert in the 14th century, was made of silver and was used as a means of payment for goods and services. One fascinating fact about this coin is that it features an image of the king on one side and the Hungarian coat of arms on the other, which was a unique design element for coins during that time period.
