Jaelus' Hungarian Patterns

Owner Comments:

This is undoubtedly the crown jewel of my pattern collection. Patterns of the short-lived Second Hungarian Republic (1946-1949) are extremely scarce. Only 10 pieces of this 10 fillér pattern were ever struck, and no examples of this type can be found in the Hungarian National Collection.

Many Second Hungarian Republic coinage designs were the origins of modern Hungarian designs. While the planchet composition and legends changed with the times, both the obverse and reverse design of this 10 fillér pattern would remain in use until 1997.
