Description

1235-70 Slavonia Denar - King Bela IV of Hungary (NGC XF40) Up for sale is an authentic, professionally graded medieval silver Denar minted for the region of Slavonia. This is not just a piece of old silver—it is a tangible witness to one of the most dramatic eras in European history. Historical Context & Fascinating Facts: • The King Who Rebuilt a Nation: King Bela IV (1235–1270) is hailed as the "Second Founder of Hungary." His reign was defined by the catastrophic Mongol (Tartar) invasion of 1241. After rebuilding his shattered kingdom, he fortified the borders and developed Slavonia into a crucial economic and military shield. • The First "Kuna" Currency: The obverse of this coin depicts a running marten (kunis) between two stars. In medieval Slavonia, marten pelts were highly prized and used as a standard form of payment. This very coin design laid the historical foundation for the modern Croatian currency name (Kuna). • The Double Cross: The reverse features a prominent double cross with two crowned heads facing each other, symbolizing royal authority and the deep integration of Slavonians within the Hungarian crown.
