| Additional information |
The forint was introduced on August 1, 1946, replacing the pengő after one of the most catastrophic hyperinflations in recorded history — the pengő's daily inflation rate peaked at 207 percent, a figure that still holds the world record. Stabilization required the new currency to be introduced at a conversion rate of 400 octillion pengő to one forint. This commemorative marks that anniversary with a circulation-quality issue rather than a precious-metal presentation piece, an unusual choice that keeps the coin accessible to ordinary collectors.
