<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 3586215, member: 39&quot;]Hungary did issue two commemorative coins on that occasion: 50 and 100 forint, silver. They came out and are dated 1972. Not sure when Stephen was actually born - some sources say 969, others 975, so 1972 is a good middle of the road approach. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; (By the way, the pengő had been replaced by the forint in 1946.)</p><p><br /></p><p>The depicted crown, by the way, was still in the US when that medal was issued - it was not returned until 1978. So maybe that piece was not made in Hungary? Just a guess.</p><p><br /></p><p><i>Edit</i> - What I find a little confusing is that, among the Latin text, you also have the word &quot;committee&quot; which is neither Latin nor Hungarian but English. Could &quot;HUNG·NAT·&quot; be English too - as in &quot;Hungarian National Committee&quot;?</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
