| Obverse description | The obverse features a bold, stylised numeral '500' dominating the central field, with the two zeros rendered as large open circles in a distinctive Art Deco-influenced typeface. The denomination legend 'FORINT' appears below the numeral, followed by the date '1988' and the Budapest mint mark 'BP.' beneath it. The circular legend 'MAGYAR' arcs across the upper portion of the coin and 'NÉPKÖZTÁRSASÁG' curves along the lower border, together reading 'Hungarian People's Republic' in Latin script. The engraver's signature 'KUTAS' is incused at the bottom of the field. The design is executed in high relief against a mirror-polished proof field. |
