| Beschrijving keerzijde | A central pellet is surrounded by an arrangement of wedges and crescent-shaped wedges radiating outward to form a cross motif, all contained within a beaded inner circle. The design is purely geometric and aniconic, characteristic of the anonymous medieval Hungarian denier series. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Stephen III came to power as a teenager in 1162, immediately contested by his two uncles — László II and Stephen IV — who seized the throne in succession with Byzantine backing before Stephen III finally secured his reign. The political instability of those early years almost certainly disrupted minting continuity, making it difficult to assign precise dates within the issue's decade-long span.
Hungarian deniers of this period were struck at extremely low weights, a trend accelerating through the twelfth century as the royal treasury increasingly debased the coinage.
