Beschrijving voorzijde Central large pearl cross with arms terminating in smaller crosslets, dividing the field into four wedge-shaped quadrants. Each quadrant is bounded by four pearl lines radiating from the central cross toward the periphery, with four pellets positioned within each quadrant. The design is executed entirely without a surrounding legend, in the characteristic hammered style of Árpád-dynasty coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

Géza II ruled during one of medieval Hungary's most internationally entangled reigns — simultaneously fending off Byzantine pressure under Manuel I Komnenos, who invaded repeatedly from the south, while maintaining uneasy relations with the Holy Roman Empire to the west. Hungarian royal deniers of this period functioned partly as instruments of tribute and gift exchange in these diplomatic negotiations, not merely as domestic trade currency. The extremely low weight of this issue reflects a broader debasement trend across mid-twelfth century Hungarian coinage that accelerated under Géza's successors.
