Interesting fact

The Parvus coin was minted during the reign of Charles Robert, who was the King of Hungary and Croatia from 1307 to 1342. The coin was used as a means of payment and was widely accepted in trade throughout the region. Despite its small size and relatively low value, the Parvus coin played an important role in the economy of medieval Hungary and remains a valuable piece of history for collectors today.
