PHOTOS: New, special forint coins issued in Hungary!
Two new, special forint coins have been issued in Hungary to mark the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Hungarian National Bank (Magyar Nemzeti Bank, MNB).
A special 100-forint coin was issued on Thursday to mark the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Hungarian National Bank, hvg.hu reports. The new piece is the subject of a separate decree of the Governor of the National Bank, published in the Hungarian Gazette on Thursday. The date of issue is 16 May 2024.
The obverse of the coin will be different from the usual 100-forint.
According to the Hungarian Gazette, “the central field will show a slightly eccentric depiction of the logo of the Hungarian National Bank, surrounded by a motif taken from the decorative frame of the share issued by the National Bank in 1924, which extends on two sides beyond the inner core and interrupts the string of pearls running along the outer edge of the obverse.
On the edge of the front cover, in the upper circles, is the inscription ‘HUNGARY’, and in the lower circles, in three lines, the inscription ‘guardian of a stable financial system that has been independent for 100 years’.”

The year of issue (2024) and the year of foundation (1924) are also shown on the coin. There are no changes on the back. Two million copies of the new coin will be issued.
In addition, there will also be 6000 silver commemorative coins with a face value of HUF 50,000.
