Additional information

Trial pieces from the Hungarian Mint in this period were produced for internal approval and occasionally for presentation to state officials — they were never intended for public release. This reverse trial for the 1968 Semmelweis commemorative isolates the reverse die at a stage before the final coin entered production, making it a document of the approval process rather than a finished product. Semmelweis himself died in 1865, and the centenary of his death provided the occasion for the issue.
