| Obverse description | Central field displays the fourfold Hungarian royal coat of arms, quartered with the Árpád stripes, the double cross of Hungary, the Dalmatian leopard heads, and the Bohemian lions. An inescutcheon at the center bears the Hunyadi crow holding a ring in its beak, serving as the personal dynastic emblem of Matthias Corvinus. The shield is surrounded by a circular legend in Gothic uncial lettering. The overall composition reflects the heraldic conventions of late-medieval Central European coinage. |
