My Collection
Description:
Obverse
Depicts details from the new twenty thousand forint banknote, which is the very latest circulating currency that has been issued by the Hungarian National Bank. The words “ÉRTÉKEK – FEJLŐDÉS – TRADÍCIÓ – IDŐTÁLLÓSÁG – STABILITÁS”(VALUES – PROGRESS – TRADITION – ENDURANCE – STABILITY ) can be seen in very small lettering to the right. Between these appear the signature of Dr György Matolcsy, the current governor of the Hungarian central bank.
Reverse
Images of Forint coins, as issued in 1946. The signature of Dr Imre Oltványi, who was the governor of the Hungarian National Bank in 1946. At the middle of the design, slightly off-centre to the right, appears the national Coat of Arms of Hungary, also known as the Kossuth Coat of Arms.
