Reverse description Full-length facing figure of Saint Ladislaus (Szent László), clad in royal robes and armour, holding a battle-axe in his raised right hand and the orb in his left hand. The letters M and O appear in the field to either side of the saint, representing the mint mark of Buda Chamberlain Mikes Jemnisti, and the numeral 13 is placed between the saint's legs, referencing the original florin type. The legend ZSIGMOND*1387-1437 ARANYFORINTJA arcs around the periphery, faithfully reproducing the inscription of the medieval gold florin.
