Denier - Peter Orseolo

Peter Orseolo ruled Hungary twice — deposed in 1041, restored by Holy Roman Emperor Henry III in 1044 after the Battle of Ménfő, then blinded and imprisoned following a second uprising in 1046. His reign produced some of the earliest Hungarian silver coinage, building directly on the monetary framework established by his uncle Stephen I. The specific reference variants H#6 and H#6a suggest minor die differences that likely reflect the interrupted production across his two reigns rather than any deliberate monetary reform.
