| Beschrijving keerzijde | Stylized architectural motif rendered in flat hammered relief, depicting a fortified structure or building façade with multiple horizontal registers suggesting masonry courses. The upper portion features a schematic face or mask flanked by horizontal lines, above a lower section with three rounded arches resting on short columns, evoking a Romanesque arcade or city gate. Two small upright figures or finials flank the structure at the sides. A small crescent-shaped symbol appears in the lower field below the main composition. The overall design is characteristic of the anonymous bracteat-influenced denár coinage of medieval Hungary under Andrew II. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Andrew II's reign was defined less by stable governance than by the crisis that produced it: his 1222 Golden Bull, extracted by rebelling nobles and often called Hungary's Magna Carta equivalent, fundamentally curtailed royal fiscal authority. The timing matters for coinage — his deniers reflect a period of chronic treasury pressure, much of it self-inflicted by the catastrophically expensive Fifth Crusade he led in 1217.
Silver fineness degraded noticeably across his thirty-year reign as the crown monetized whatever metal it could source.
