Comment
Hungarian Kings had a long time claim for Eastern Halici (Lvov) this is one of the few coins to justify the claim.Interesting fact
The Scherf - Louis I coin, minted for Russia in the 14th century, is an interesting piece of history. One fascinating fact about this coin is that it was made of silver, which was a valuable and sought-after metal at the time. The coin weighs 1.04 grams, which is a relatively small weight for a coin, but it is still a significant piece of history. Despite being small, it has a rich history and is a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
