# DenomMetadata queries the client metadata of a given coin denomination.

`GET /cosmos/bank/v1beta1/denoms_metadata/{denom}`

## Path parameters

- `denom` string, required

## Response `200`

A successful response.

- CosmosBankV1beta1QueryDenomMetadataResponse — QueryDenomMetadataResponse is the response type for the Query/DenomMetadata RPC method.
  - `metadata` CosmosBankV1beta1Metadata — Metadata represents a struct that describes a basic token.
    - `base` string — base represents the base denom (should be the DenomUnit with exponent = 0).
    - `denom_units` CosmosBankV1beta1DenomUnit[]
      - `aliases` string[]
      - `denom` string — denom represents the string name of the given denom unit (e.g uatom).
      - `exponent` integer — exponent represents power of 10 exponent that one must raise the base_denom to in order to equal the given DenomUnit's denom 1 denom = 10^exponent base_denom (e.g. with a base_denom of uatom, one can create a DenomUnit of 'atom' with exponent = 6, thus: 1 atom = 10^6 uatom).
    - `description` string
    - `display` string — display indicates the suggested denom that should be displayed in clients.
    - `name` string
    - `symbol` string — symbol is the token symbol usually shown on exchanges (eg: ATOM). This can be the same as the display.
    - `uri` string — URI to a document (on or off-chain) that contains additional information. Optional.

- `default` — An unexpected error response.
