In the public's eyes, Hungary has created the Coin of the Year. This year for the first time a COTY People's Choice Award was selected by more than 100,000 coin enthusiasts worldwide who voted online at NumisMaster.com. The award goes to the Hungarian Mint for its copper-nickel 50-forint that commemorates the 50th anniversary of the 1956 Hungarian revolution. It is KM-789. Folks - please DO NOT copy and paste articles from the coin magazines. Provide a link if you wish - but please don't break the copyright laws ! The ditors of the magazines get downright ticked off when they see this stuff. Post a single paragraph if you must - but not the entire article. Awards will be presented Feb. 2, at the World Money Fair in Berlin, Germany. Stay tuned to NumisMaster for continuing coverage.
