| Additional information |
Béla IV's Slavonian deniers were issued under the authority of the Ban of Slavonia, a regional administrative arrangement that gave the province unusual monetary autonomy within the Hungarian kingdom. The type was produced continuously across Béla's long reign — a reign defined above all by the Mongol invasion of 1241–42, which devastated the Hungarian interior and forced Béla to flee to the Dalmatian coast. Slavonia, relatively less ravaged than the eastern Hungarian plains, remained a functioning administrative base during and after the crisis.
ÉH#3 is among the earliest catalogued types in Éremhatározó for this issuing authority.
