Aanvullende informatie

Géza II came to power at age fourteen and spent much of his reign managing Hungarian involvement in the Byzantine-Serbian conflicts of the 1140s and 1150s, while simultaneously fending off dynastic challenges from his uncle Boris, who twice solicited German imperial support to seize the throne. These pressures likely drove aggressive minting to fund military commitments. Hungarian deniers of this period circulated widely beyond the kingdom's borders, functioning as trade currency throughout the Carpathian Basin and into Balkan markets under Byzantine commercial influence.

The ÉH#75 reference places this type squarely in the early Árpád bracteat tradition, struck at a fineness that declined noticeably across Géza's reign.
