Vorderseitenbeschreibung Typeset letterpress note printed in dark brown on plain cream paper, enclosed within an ornate rectangular border composed of floral and interlaced vine motifs at the corners and sides. The denomination numeral "1" appears at the top centre beneath a row of stylised acanthus-leaf vignettes, followed by the issuing authority legend and the value in large bold script. The central text field contains three numbered clauses in Hungarian outlining the note's legal backing, anti-counterfeiting penalties, and redemption terms, dated "Rozsnyó 1849 Julius 16-kán"; a small scrollwork ornament is positioned at the foot of the text block, above the title "főjegyző".

Anmerkungen

Rozsnyó (today Rožňava in southern Slovakia) issued these small emergency notes in 1849 during the Hungarian Revolution against Habsburg rule — a period when coin disappeared from circulation almost entirely as the fighting intensified and public confidence in regular monetary channels collapsed. Municipal mining towns across Upper Hungary resorted to locally printed scrip to keep commerce moving at the most basic level.

Ambrus records this as a scarce survivor of a class of notes rarely preserved with any integrity, owing to both the crude paper used and the brevity of their intended circulation.
