Obverse description The gilt obverse depicts a medieval battle scene in the lower field, with armored soldiers carrying spears and a banner, and a fortress with battlements in the right background. In the upper portion of the field, two circular coin reproductions are shown in relief — one displaying a lily motif and the other a standing figure of a saint — referencing the first Hungarian gold florin. The curved legend appears along the upper rim.
