Aanvullende informatie

Issued to mark the 400th anniversary of the Battle of Szigetvár, where Miklós Zrínyi led the defense of the fortress against Suleiman the Magnificent's Ottoman army in 1566. Zrínyi's garrison of roughly 2,300 men held out for over a month against a force estimated at 100,000, delaying the Ottoman advance long enough that the campaign season collapsed — Suleiman himself died during the siege. The battle produced no military victory for Hungary, but Zrínyi's final sortie became one of the most mythologized acts of sacrifice in Hungarian national memory.

Hungary's commemorative forint series of the 1960s was produced in relatively modest quantities for a socialist-era issue, with much of the mintage directed toward Western coin markets as a source of hard currency.
