The denier (/ d ə ˈ n ɪər /; Latin: denarius, Italian: denaro, Greek: δηνάριο, romanized: dinario; abbr. d. ) or penny was a medieval coin which takes its name from the Frankish coin first issued in the late seventh century; [ 1 ] in English it is sometimes referred to as a silver penny.
The name hyperpyron was used by the late medieval Greeks, while the name bezant was used by the late medieval Latin merchants for the same coin. The Italians also used the name perpero or pipero for the same coin (an abridgement of the name hyperpyron).
