| Obverse description | The obverse centres on an allegorical vignette of three classically robed female figures, one bearing a flag, flanked to the left by a standing uniformed soldier and to the right by a seated female figure with a globe; ornate guilloche rosettes fill each corner, with a large roman numeral 'X' at upper left and '10' at upper right. The bold legend 'HUNGARIAN FUND' arches across the centre above an extended English-language promise-to-pay text referencing the Independent Hungarian Government, dated at New York, 2nd February 1852, with a manuscript signature at lower right. The overall impression is consistent with an engraved trial printing executed by Danforth, Bald & Co. |
