[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 3527208, member: 46237"]Well, this blew my budget for a bit, but it was worth it. A complete major denomination set of Hungarian 1992 business strike patterns. 50 pieces were struck of each of these patterns with a business strike finish. The Hungarian Mint auctioned off most of the sets they had retained (along with other modern patterns) in 2001, retaining 4 sets for national museums and archives. These are patterns of what I would consider to be the first ultra-modern Hungarian coins. These types are also special to me, since they were the types in use when I was first able to make a trip to Hungary in 1996. I could not visit earlier as my mother was considered a political criminal for fleeing the country through her contacts in the Vatican in the mid 70s, but by the mid 90s her record had been expunged.
