| Reverse description | The central vignette reproduces Károly Lotz's painting 'Ménes a zivatarban' (Horses in the Storm) in intaglio, portraying a herd of horses and cattle driven across an open Hungarian plain beneath a turbulent, storm-laden sky. The Hungarian coat of arms is positioned at left, with an ornate guilloche panel at right, and the denomination numeral '50' placed in each upper corner. Multilingual denomination inscriptions in Hungarian, German, Slovak, Ukrainian, and Romanian run along the upper and lower borders. |
