Beschrijving voorzijde Crowned royal figure seated facing, depicted in a stylized, archaic manner characteristic of mid-13th-century Hungarian bracteat-influenced coinage. The king is shown with a globus or orb to the left, wearing a broad crown with decorative elements. The overall composition is rendered in low relief with no surrounding legend, the design filling the irregular flan.

Aanvullende informatie

Béla IV's reign was defined almost entirely by the Mongol invasion of 1241–42, which devastated Hungary so thoroughly that contemporaries estimated the population loss at roughly half. The kingdom's minting activity was severely disrupted during this period, and small silver fractions like this obol were among the first issues resumed as Béla rebuilt royal infrastructure from near-total collapse.

Post-invasion coinage under Béla is notoriously difficult to sequence chronologically within the reign's 35-year span.
