Comment
C.II.: 126Interesting fact
The Parvus coin was minted during the reign of King Sigismund of Luxembourg, who ruled Hungary from 1387 to 1437. The coin's design features the king's name and title in Latin, "Sigismundus Dei Gratia Rex," which means "Sigismund, by the grace of God, king." The coin's silver content and small weight made it a popular choice for everyday transactions, and it remained in circulation for many years after its minting.
