Reverse description The glorified Madonna, crowned and surrounded by radiating rays of light, is depicted enthroned and seated on a crescent moon, holding the Christ Child on her left arm in the traditional Patrona Hungariae iconographic type. The composition is rendered in a broader, more expansive style than the obverse, occupying the majority of the field. The mint mark appears below the central device within a small cartouche. The surrounding Latin legend invokes the Virgin Mary as Mother of God and Patroness of Hungary, with the year of issue incorporated into the legend.
