| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a standing figure of the Virgin Mary (Madonna) as Patrona Hungariae, shown in three-quarter or frontal pose with the infant Christ, rendered in the simplified style typical of hammered Hungarian deniers of the late 15th century. The mint marks S and W appear in the field, flanking the figure, identifying the Vienna mint output during the Hungarian occupation. The surrounding legend PATRO VNGARI S W, referencing the Patron of Hungary, is distributed around the periphery in Roman capitals on the irregular flan. The image reflects the longstanding Marian devotional tradition on Hungarian coinage established under earlier Angevin rulers. |
