Obol - Andrew II

Andrew II's reign was defined less by monetary policy than by the catastrophic giveaway known as the Golden Bull of 1222 — effectively forced out of him by magnates who had watched him squander royal estates and revenues on a scale that alarmed even his own court. The fiscal pressure this created filtered down to every denomination, including the smallest.

The obol issues of this reign are catalogued across multiple Hungarian reference systems precisely because the type presents genuine attribution difficulties, with ÉH and Huszár occasionally diverging on die groupings.
