| Reverse description | Deep blue intaglio vignette at centre within an ornate scalloped oval frame portrays a semi-draped male figure — the pentathlete Csaba Hegedűs — raised on one knee, holding a hammer aloft in his right hand and a sheaf of wheat in his left, symbolising the union of sport and labour. Denomination numerals "20" appear in guilloche diamond cartouches at left and right, with fine lace-pattern underprint across the field. The legend "HÚSZ FORINT" is set in a decorative banner below the central vignette, with designer and engraver credits in the lower corners. |
