Beschrijving voorzijde Central field bearing a divided shield: the dexter half displays the Hungarian barry (horizontal stripes), while the sinister half depicts the Bohemian lion rampant. The composite coat of arms is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding marginal legend in Latin reads across the upper and lower periphery, separated by pellets, with mint and privy mark initials appearing in the lower field below the shield.

Aanvullende informatie

Matthias Corvinus used the denier series aggressively as a fiscal instrument during his early reign, flooding Hungary with small silver to finance his Black Army — the first standing mercenary force in Central European history. That army, funded in part through reformed royal revenues and a reorganized mint system, allowed him to operate independently of the nobility who had long controlled access to military manpower.

The ÉH#557 attribution places this among the earliest issues of his reign, struck within a year of his formal coronation in March 1464.
