| Beschrijving voorzijde | A horizontal pearl line divides the field; above, a central cross flanked on each side by a line terminating in a dot at the bottom and a crescent at the top, with short diagonal lines extending further outward toward the edge. Below the dividing line, a central dot is flanked by short lines each bearing a dot below and a wedge above, with small crosses at the periphery. The overall design is geometric and abstract, characteristic of 12th-century Hungarian hammered coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Stephen III came to power as a teenager in 1162 and spent much of his reign fighting off rival claimants backed by Byzantine Emperor Manuel I Komnenos, who repeatedly installed Stephen's uncles — Ladislaus II and then Stephen IV — as puppet kings in his stead. The denier series issued under Stephen III therefore spans a reign that was interrupted and contested, and attributing specific types to precise sub-periods within 1162–1172 remains an unresolved problem in Hungarian medieval numismatics.
