| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crowned bust of King Andrew III facing left in profile, depicted in a stylized medieval manner. The king wears a crown with fleur-de-lis-style points atop flowing hair rendered with incised lines. A chain mail or jewelled collar is visible at the neck. The portrait is executed in low relief characteristic of hammered Hungarian medieval coinage, occupying the central field of the flan without an encircling legend. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A double-barred patriarchal cross (crux gemina) occupies the central field, with each arm terminating in a horizontal crosslet finial, giving the cross a distinctly Hungarian heraldic character. A small decorative element or orb surmounts the top of the cross. The lower arm rests above a small stepped base or platform. The design is rendered in low relief on an irregular flan typical of late 13th-century Hungarian hammered coinage, with no surrounding legend. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Andrew III, the last of the Árpád dynasty, spent much of his reign fighting off rival claimants backed by the papacy and the Angevins of Naples, who regarded his legitimacy as questionable on grounds of his maternal Italian lineage. His coinage reflects a treasury under strain — these deniers were struck in quantity but at reduced weight, part of a broader debasement pattern visible across his eleven-year reign. The dynasty died with him in 1301, and within months the Angevin Charles Robert was pressing his claim with French and papal support.
