Issued under the Ung-Beregi Royal Commissioner during the Hungarian Revolution of 1848–49, this is one of the more obscure local emergency issues of that conflict — produced not by any central authority but by a regional civil commissioner operating in the northeastern Hungarian counties of Ung and Bereg. The signature of Eötvös Tamás gives it legal standing under the revolutionary administration, but the issuing structure was improvised and short-lived.
Munkács itself fell to Austrian forces in the summer of 1849, and with it any redemption prospect for notes like this one.
