| Additional information |
Charles Robert of Anjou spent the first decade of his reign fighting to consolidate a throne disputed by rival claimants and Czech-backed pretenders. By 1323, when this issue begins, he had finally subdued the great noble oligarchs who had carved Hungary into private fiefdoms — the Csáks, Amadés, and Köszegis — and relocated his court to Visegrád, signaling a new administrative order. The denier's decade-long production window reflects that hard-won stability.
Hungarian silver coinage of this period drew on the rich ore deposits of the northern mining towns, particularly Körmöcbánya, which Charles reorganized under royal control after 1328.
