Rückseitenbeschreibung The reverse, also printed in red on cream paper, retains the decorative outer border and carries the numeral '2' within ornamental panels at left and right, each inscribed 'KORONA'. The central text sets out the redemption guarantee, noting that the Esztergom financial institutions will exchange the voucher for Austro-Hungarian Bank notes on demand, and declares the note valid only within the city and county territory, with a strict legal warning against counterfeiting. A six-pointed star control stamp of the Esztergom County Workers' and Soldiers' Council is applied in violet ink at lower centre, accompanied by a printed serial number and two manuscript signatures of the county executive committee.

Anmerkungen

This note belongs to a short-lived but historically dense category: the Hungarian municipal and institutional emergency notes — szükségpénz — issued in the chaotic months following the dissolution of Austria-Hungary and the collapse of established monetary supply chains. Esztergom's financial institutions printed their own obligations simply because there was nothing else to use. The Austro-Hungarian krone was still nominally in circulation, but physical banknotes had essentially stopped moving through provincial towns.

The official stamp serves as the sole authentication device, which tells you something about the available resources and the urgency of the situation. A stamp was what they had.
