Interesting fact

The Obol coin from Unified Moravia and Margraviate, made of silver and minted during the reign of Vladislaus II (1224-1227), features an interesting fact. Despite being a standard circulation coin, it has a unique feature - a small cross symbol located on the reverse side of the coin. This cross is believed to represent the Christian faith, which was an important aspect of Vladislaus II's reign. The inclusion of this symbol on the coin highlights the significance of religion in the culture and society of that time.
