背面描述	Small cross centered within a beaded inner circle, with a pellet placed in each of the four quarters formed by the cross arms. The area between the inner and outer circles is filled with radiating lines, creating a decorative border frame typical of Árpád-dynasty deniers.

附加信息	Béla II ruled Hungary partially blind — blinded as a child by order of King Stephen II to prevent him from claiming the throne — and his decade-long reign was marked by a brutal settling of scores at the Diet of Arad in 1131, where scores of nobles implicated in that mutilation were killed. The klippe format of this denier, struck square rather than round, reflects the primitive cutting methods of Hungarian minting in this period rather than any deliberate aesthetic choice.
