| Opmerkingen |
Hungary's post-WWI situation meant the new republic — and then the kingdom under Horthy — inherited a currency system in freefall. This 1 Korona was issued by the Hungarian Royal Ministry of Finance rather than a central bank, a direct consequence of the disruption to Austro-Hungarian financial institutions following the dissolution of the empire. The Ministry issued small-denomination notes as an emergency stopgap while the banking apparatus was reorganized.
The korona itself was already losing value rapidly by 1920, and within a few years the entire denomination structure would be swept away by hyperinflation, replaced eventually by the pengő in 1927.
