[QUOTE="Clinker, post: 699684, member: 6229"]As you know, most beginning coinage bear denominations in relationship to the authorizing country's weight units, i.e., Cash, Dinar, Franc, Pound, Rupee, Shekel, etc, but there are exceptions. Croatia (Hrvatska) is such a country. The region of the world now known as Croatia, Hungary and Slovinia (previously known as Pannonia) was home for a valuable fur animal, the marten (a relative of mink and sable). When the Roman Empire ruled upper and lower Pannonia they imposed taxes specifying Marten pelts as legal payment. The Croation word for Marten is Kuna. After the decline of Rome, the Slavic regions became part of the Hungarian Empire. At that time (Middle Ages) the Hungarian government appointed Croation Viceroys as caretakers of the political and commercial dealings of the area. Viceroy Slavona Bela III (1235 - 1270) convinced the Hungarian crown that, in order to improve commercial trade in the Slavic regions, each entity needed to produce its own coinage. The [B]Kuna[/B] was born. The first form of the [B]Kuna[/B] (silver composition) struck in Croatia was referred to as [I]Banoveck, Banski Denar, [/I]or more expediently, [I]Banica[/I] (compound words for Viceroy and the Roman Denarius).
