| Obverse description | This note is the Austro-Hungarian Bank 100 Kronen issue dated 2 January 1910 (Austria P-11), overstamped with a large red oval handstamp reading "MAGYARORSZÁG" (Hungary) to validate it for circulation in post-WWI Hungary. The left half carries the denomination "SZÁZ KORONA" in large ornate letterpress, with the issuing bank name "OSZTRÁK-MAGYAR BANK" below and two facsimile signatures. To the right, a fine intaglio vignette by Koloman Moser presents a half-length portrait of a young woman in traditional dress, set within an elaborate Art Nouveau guilloche border with decorative corner numerals "100". |
