The Hungarian Postal Savings Bank stepped into currency issuance after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian monetary system and the chaotic post-war scramble for circulating media. This 20 Korona belongs to a transitional moment when Hungary was simultaneously dealing with the aftermath of the 1919 Romanian occupation of Budapest, rampant inflation, and the political upheaval of the early Horthy regime — none of which made orderly currency management easy.
The Postal Savings Bank series was a stopgap. Inflation would render the entire korona denomination system functionally obsolete within a few years, replaced by the pengő in 1927.
