Reversbeschreibung	A small cross at center is enclosed within an inner line circle, with wedge-shaped ornaments placed between its arms. The letter S appears in the reverse field, serving as a distinguishing mintmark or die identifier. A peripheral legend runs along the outer edge, separated by a beaded border. The design elements reflect the simplified, symbolic style typical of early medieval Hungarian deniers struck under the Árpád dynasty.

Zusätzliche Informationen	Coloman — known in Hungarian as Könyves Kálmán, "Coloman the Bookish" — came to the throne in 1095 after the suspicious death of his brother Álmos's rival claim collapsed. His reign marked a decisive shift toward Western administrative models, including a more regularized coinage. These small deniers reflect the influence of contemporary Bavarian and Bohemian issues that were circulating across the Carpathian basin during his consolidation of royal authority. The multiple catalog references — ÉH, CNH, and CAC — each occasionally assign slightly different die groupings to this type, and attribution disputes between H#40 and adjacent numbers remain common in the specialist literature.
