This is one of the first Soviet era Hungarian patterns for new types struck after the Revolution of 1956. 50 pieces were produced. Post revolution coinage featured a changed Hungarian arms starting in 1957. This popular 2 forint type would be struck through the end of the Soviet era in 1989, although aluminum trials were done of this type for many dates.
