<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jaelus, post: 4585446, member: 46237&quot;]A lovely example, congrats.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have not seen any particular scarcity of this issue, even in uncirculated grades, above what would be suggested by the relative mintage figures, though examples above MS63 for most years, and above MS64 for 1938 are difficult to find. You can see my type example here. It is a 1936, which is one of the lower mintage years.

A few circulating silver coins were issued in the modern coinage period after the war, but it was irregular. With WWII around the corner it would not be unusual for any of the silver issues in the years leading up to the war to have been hoarded or melted.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of note, this 2 Pengő issue is really a modern version of the Mária Terézia thalers issued from 1767-1785, as you can see here:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1135618[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
