| Opmerkingen |
The Vörös Újság — "Red Newspaper" — was the official daily of the Hungarian Soviet Republic, which held power for 133 days in 1919 before collapsing under Romanian military pressure and internal fracture. This 50 Fillér token was issued by the paper's own procurement unit as a form of scrip, almost certainly to manage subscriptions or internal transactions at a moment when the broader monetary system was under severe strain.
Emergency scrip issued by a newspaper rather than a bank is unusual enough. That it survives from a regime that lasted barely four months makes it a genuinely rare artifact of one of the shortest-lived communist governments in European history.
