Does anyone know what the reverse of this particular Hungarian Denar represents?

Hi ,
 Not real idea.. ??? ::)

but some opinion : it is described a "city" or "castle"...

any way the pattern are very similar of the EH-116(CNH-1-279, Huszar-199) bracteat pattern..

Huszar does not even attempt an explanation of the reverse, other than to describe its component elements.  My very rough translation from Huszar:  "Cross between two annulet’s, below that X-X within a horizontal beam, stars to its sides, below that pellets within a longer horizontal beam, below that five columns of wedges and pellets, below that crescent between two annulets."  Stkp
