| Reverse description | A bold left-facing portrait bust of the celebrated Hungarian composer and ethnomusicologist Béla Bartók dominates the field, rendered in high relief with finely detailed facial features and naturalistically modelled hair. The legend 'BARTÓK BÉLA EMLÉKÉV' arcs around the upper periphery, while the dates '1881 - 1961' curve along the lower portion of the coin, commemorating the eightieth anniversary of his birth. The engraver's signature 'IVÁN' appears in small characters within the lower field near the truncation of the portrait. |
