| Obverse description | The obverse is that of the Austro-Hungarian Bank 50 Korona note of 2 January 1914 (Austria P-15), overstruck with a red two-line handstamp reading 'MAGYARORSZÁG' to validate the note for circulation in Hungary. The underlying design retains the central oval guilloche vignette with the Hungarian coat of arms, flanked by ornate rosette underprints in blue, with the text 'ÖTVEN KORONA' and serial number at right. The original inscriptions of the Osztrák-Magyar Bank and the three facsimile signatures — Főtanácsos, Kormányzó, and Vezértitkár — remain visible beneath the overprint. |
