| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse displays a compact, centralised architectural motif enclosed within a raised circular border or inner circle. The design features a stylised tower or gate surmounted by a domed or triangular roof, flanked by curved foliate or wing-like projections on each side, evoking a royal or ecclesiastical building. The composition is rendered in a bold, schematic style characteristic of Hungarian bracteate-influenced obol coinage of the reign of Andrew II. The field is plain, with no visible legend or inscription. The flan is irregular and slightly cupped, consistent with hammered production. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Andrew II's reign was defined less by stable governance than by the relentless alienation of royal estates to his nobles — a policy so ruinous it forced the issuing of the Golden Bull of 1222, Hungary's foundational constitutional document limiting royal power. Coinage from his reign reflects the fiscal strain: weights dropped progressively, and the silver content of small denominations was repeatedly debased to fund his disastrous Fifth Crusade of 1217, from which he returned having accomplished virtually nothing.
At 0.22g, this obol sits at the lower end of even the debased standard his mints maintained.
