| Additional information |
Ladislaus I ruled Hungary during a period of chronic dynastic instability — his own claim to the throne came at the expense of his cousin Salomon, whom he displaced after years of intermittent civil war and Hungarian-German conflict. The papacy eventually sided with Ladislaus, and his canonization in 1192 made him Hungary's most venerated royal saint. These deniers circulated through a kingdom that was simultaneously consolidating Latin Christianity in the Carpathian Basin and absorbing Croatia following the 1091 campaign.
The multiple catalog references reflect genuine scholarly disagreement over die classification within this reign's coinage.
