| Beschrijving keerzijde | Facing crowned royal head rendered in a bold, primitive style, enclosed within a plain inner circle. The crown features prominent central and lateral points or fleurs-de-lis terminals. Flanking the head are two rosettes or stylised floral ornaments in the field. Below the bust, a schematic representation of a body or throne element is visible, rendered in angular, geometric relief typical of early 13th-century Hungarian hammered deniers. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Andrew II's reign was defined less by monetary policy than by the catastrophic generosity with which he alienated crown lands and revenues to his nobility — a process so ruinous that it culminated in the Golden Bull of 1222, Hungary's foundational constitutional charter, wrested from him by barons who had watched the royal treasury hollow out in real time. Coinage from this period reflects chronic fiscal pressure rather than any deliberate reform.
The thin fabric and low weight of this denier are consistent with a deliberate reduction in silver content that accelerated across Andrew's later years as the crown struggled to fund both domestic patronage and his long-deferred Crusade, finally undertaken in 1217.
