| Reverse description | Enthroned frontal figure of the Madonna (Virgin Mary) seated, holding the Christ Child on her left arm, depicted in the traditional Patrona Hungariae style. The figures are rendered in low relief with schematic drapery characteristic of hammered small silver coinage of the period. A Latin legend runs around the periphery within a beaded circle, identifying the devotional type. The overall style reflects the continuation of medieval Hungarian iconographic conventions under Transylvanian princely authority. |
