| Obverse description | The upper portion of the obverse features the coat of arms of Hungary — a crowned shield displaying the traditional Hungarian heraldic divisions — flanked by elaborate baroque-style foliate and fruit decorations in high relief. The mint mark 'BP.' appears at the lower left of the shield composition and the date '2014' at the lower right. Below, the country name 'MAGYARORSZÁG' is rendered in bold, arched lettering across the field, with the large denomination numeral '10000' prominently displayed beneath it, accompanied by decorative scrollwork. The denomination word 'FORINT' appears in a rectangular cartouche at the bottom of the design. |

| Additional information |
Issued by the Magyar Nemzeti Bank as part of Hungary's ongoing commemorative program, this 2014 piece falls within a series that expanded sharply after the 2008 financial crisis, when collector coins became a modest but deliberate revenue stream for the central bank. The specific subject commemorated here is not derivable from catalog references alone, and Adamo EM273 places it within a well-documented sequence without distinguishing it further.
KM#859 cross-references cleanly with the .925 silver output of the Budapest Mint, which has struck all Hungarian collector issues domestically since the post-Soviet restructuring of the early 1990s.
