Beschrijving keerzijde Central field features a small cross within an inner beaded circle, surrounded by pseudo-Kufic ornamental devices imitating Arabic script, a decorative convention common in Hungarian medieval coinage reflecting Byzantine and Islamic artistic influences. No outer circle is present. The Kufic-style elements are arranged symmetrically around the central cross, filling the field between the inner circle and the coin's edge.

Aanvullende informatie

Géza II ruled during one of medieval Hungary's most externally pressured reigns — simultaneously managing Byzantine encroachment under Manuel I Komnenos, who backed rival claimants to the Hungarian throne throughout the 1150s, and a shifting alliance with the Second Crusade's passage through his kingdom in 1147. Coinage of this period was struck under considerable administrative strain, and the denier series associated with his reign shows notable die inconsistency across known specimens.

The ÉH#66 attribution places this piece within a well-documented but poorly understood sequence of Hungarian bracteate-influenced deniers whose exact mint chronology within the reign remains unresolved by current scholarship.
