200 forint - 175th anniversary of Lajos Batthyány’s martyrdom
The thematic side of the coin was designed by sculptor Zoltán Kovács. The commemorative circulation coin is identical with the bimetal 200-forint coins used in circulation regarding their technical parameters: the outer ring of the non-ferrous metal coin is produced from an alloy of copper (75%), nickel (4%) and zinc (21%), with its inner core made from an alloy of copper (75%) and nickel (25%). The outer diameter of the coin is 28.30 mm, while the core diameter is 17.90 mm. The rim is 2 mm thick, and the coin weighs 9 grams and it has an interrupted reeded edge.
There will be 1 million pieces made of the 200-forint commemorative circulation coin. The coin will be available for the public through the cash circulation channels. The MNB will not exchange denominations in its retail cash office. From 7 October 2024 onwards, 12,000 pieces of the 1 million pieces in total will be available for purchase in a serial numbered decorative packaging as first-day mint (in UNC. finish) through the sales channels of the Hungarian Mint Ltd. As a collector item, 40 coins will be available in bankrolls of the 200-forint commemorative circulation coins at the same place.
