| Reverse description | The central field displays the Hungarian royal coat of arms — combining the Árpád stripes and the apostolic double cross — set within a circular frame, surrounded by eight regional heraldic shields arranged in a radiating pattern. Individual letters interspersed between the shields form a legend distributed across the inner and outer registers of the field. |
