| Reverse description | Saint Ladislaus (László I, King of Hungary) depicted standing full-length facing the viewer, wearing royal robes and a crown, holding a halberd or battle-axe in his right hand and an orb in his left, both attributes of his royal and saintly dignity. The figure is rendered in a hieratic, frontal style characteristic of late medieval Hungarian gold coinage, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The circumferential legend in Gothic uncial script identifies the saint, running along the outer border. |
