Hungary. Kálmán/Coloman the Bookish (1095-1116). Huszár 32; Toth-Kiss 11.2 sigla h1.1/51; Unger 33; Réthy I 40; Frynas H.9.10; Lengyel 9/2; Adamovszky A48; Kovács pp. 167 ff
Hungary. Kálmán/Coloman the Bookish (1095-1116)

AR denar (average .46 g., 11-12.5 mm.), .29 g., 12.08 mm. max.

Obv: + CALMAN RE, King's head facing.

Rev: LADLAVS RE (decaying legend), cross with wedges.
 
Struck in Esztergom. Struck ca. 1105 (per Gyöngyössy, whose dating has not been accepted by later catalogers and appears to be speculative). Hóman hypothesized that the chronology of Coloman’s coinage can be determined via the progressively diminishing average weights of the coins. By this hypothesis, this emission is ranked 5/15, and was struck toward the middle of Coloman’s reign.

Huszár rarity 10, Toth-Kiss rarity 25, Unger rarity 50, Frynas rarity N.

Ladislaus/László I (1077-1095) was canonized in 1192. His name typically appeared, albeit in an increasingly decaying form, on the reverse of 12th century emissions such as this.
