| Additional information |
Hungary issued this piece as part of a broader commemorative program marking the year 2000, which carried particular national weight — 2000 also marked the 1000th anniversary of the Hungarian state, traditionally dated to Stephen I's coronation on Christmas Day in the year 1000. The dual significance compressed two milestones into a single issue year, and the Mint accordingly produced a range of denominations across multiple materials to capture the occasion.
The brass composition places it firmly in the non-precious commemorative tier, intended for general circulation rather than collector sets.
