Interesting fact
The Trachy - Konstantin Tih ND (1257-1277) coin from the Second Bulgarian Empire was made of copper, which was a common material for coins during that time period. However, what makes this coin stand out is that it weighs only 2.9 grams, which is relatively light compared to other coins of similar size and material. This suggests that the coin may have been designed to be easily portable and accessible to a wide range of people, perhaps as a way to promote trade and commerce in the region.
