Additional information

László IV ruled Hungary — and by extension Slavonia — as a minor from 1272, with regency struggles and baronial factions dominating the early part of his reign. His persistent alliances with the Cuman steppe peoples of his mother's heritage earned him the epithet "the Cuman," and drew repeated papal condemnation. The Slavonian denier series of his reign continued the provincial banovac tradition established under earlier Árpád rulers, issued under the authority of the Slavonian ban rather than the royal mint directly.

László was murdered in 1290 by Cuman assassins, ending the Árpád male line's grip on the province's coinage within his own lifetime.
