Reverse description The reverse depicts the full-length figure of Lúdas Matyi (Matthias the Gooseherd), the folk hero from Mihály Fazekas's eponymous 1804 narrative poem, standing facing left and holding a goose in his left hand. The figure is rendered in a naturalistic style evoking 18th-century peasant dress. The legend 'FAZEKAS MIHÁLY: LÚDAS MATYI' appears as an inscription within the field, attributing the literary source of the design.
