| Beschrijving voorzijde | A retrograde eagle displayed facing right within a linear circle border. The legend is arranged around the eagle in the field, with the letters ILA appearing above and the letters Q and A positioned in front of and beneath the bird respectively. The design is executed in the crude, bold relief typical of Hungarian hammered coinage of the late 12th century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Béla III was the first Hungarian king to introduce written record-keeping into royal administration, a reform directly tied to his years at the Byzantine court before his accession — he had been groomed as heir to Manuel I Komnenos before dynastic circumstances redirected him to Buda. His reign saw Hungary's treasury assessed at income rivaling that of the English crown, a figure recorded in a contemporary papal survey. These deniers were struck in quantity, but the thin fabric and soft silver of the type left them vulnerable to creasing and fragmentation in circulation.
