Additional information

Trial strikes from the Hungarian Royal Mint in this period were produced to test new alloys as the Treasury sought cheaper alternatives to the copper-iron compositions used through the late 1920s. Aluminium was ultimately rejected for circulating fillér coinage at this time — Hungary would not adopt it for small denominations until after World War II. Pieces like this represent die tests rather than approved production runs, struck in minimal quantities and almost never released through official channels.
