Thanks, Edward.

Joe, the article is on a topic that I am particularly interested in and which I have read quite a bit about -- and given a lot of thought. I did enjoy reading it and the images of the coins are superb! Stkp

I finally received my copy of Joe's volume III in his series of books on medieval Hungarian coins. I am now in the process of reviewing all of my coins that are within the scope of this volume, and revising the write-ups posted in my Gallery.

In doing so, I am also including information from other recent books which were generally not yet published when the coins were acquired and posted, or which I did not yet have. There has been an explosion in recent years of books published on medieval Hungarian coins. They include:

Catalog of Arpadian Coinage, volume I (2018), volume II (2018) and volume III (2020) by Csaba Toth and Josef Geza Kiss (quadrans) in Hungarian and English
Silver Book, volume I (2019) and volume II (2020) by Andras Lengyel (in Hungarian)
Medieval Hungarian Coins and Medals 1000-1526 (2007) by Marton Gyongyossy and Heinz Winter (in German)
Hungarian Coin Catalog 997-1307 (2011) by Istvan Adamovsky (in Hungarian)
Medieval Coins of Bohemia, Hungary and Poland (2015) by Jedrzej George Frynas (in English)

The one book, or more accurately, series of books that is indispensable, both in terms of its detail and its general acceptance and usage, is Joe's series. But in my view, the more the merrier!

So far, using Joe's new book (and the others) I have only updated my Album covering the bracteates (just five coins, so it was easy):
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=2253

Before doing so, I updated my three earlier Albums to include the Lengyel book citations:
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=2244 (Earliest Arpads)
and
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=2235 (Kalman/Coloman)
and
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=2252 (12th Century)

I will soon begin updating the two other Albums covered by Joe's newest book:
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=2249 (Last Arpads)
and
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=2251 (Arpadian-Angevin Interregnum)

It is a slow process so it will take a while. Thank you Joe (and thank Csaba Toth for me); I am enjoying this.

I finished updating my album on the Árpadián – Angevin Interregnum (1301-1307), which only contains five coins:

Hi, Steve,

 I'm happy because finally, you have our VOLIII. ;) +++

 I hope you enjoy it... :)



I'm a little bit busy because of my job and the pandemia, but soon I will have time again any kind of discussion...

All the best

I have finished updating my album on the last Arpads:
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=2249
I have now incorporated the information from volume III of Joe's series and the other references listed below. I enjoy the process of revisiting long-purchased coins this way, although it does get tedious at times. Than you Joe; keep the books coming. Stkp

It has been a while since I added a medieval Hungarian coin to my gallery. Here is a denár issued by Albert of Habsburg (1437-1439) in 1439 in Kassa:
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pid=172213
Huszár 592, Pohl 127-3, Unger 461c, Réthy II 135B, Frynas 28.5

Now I have to figure out how to sort coins within the gallery as this one is not in the correct order. Sorting was easy before the recent updates in the galleries.

Thank you, Joe and Edward.

In my experience coins issued by Albert are harder to come across and are pricier than the rarity ratings indicated in Huszar/Pohl and Unger and Frynas would suggest. This one was from an eBay listing; not only was it miss-attributed, the photo was upside down making the legend difficult to read. Luckily I found it! Stkp

Thank you Joe, Edward and Ron. It was a very long overdue update.

And one more:

Anonymous 12th Century Class III. Huszár 181; Toth-Kiss 20.21.1.1 sigla c.2.1/28; Unger 95; Réthy I 162; Frynas H.15.3; Lengyel 15/11; Adamovszky A213
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pid=179410

I like the type, and now have two with different sigla. The other is https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pid=179391 for comparison (one of my other recent acquisitions).

I just posted a contemporary counterfeit of Maria/Mária, Huszár 569, Pohl 114-4, Unger 443d, Réthy II 116, Frynas H.26.4, Lengyel 26/2/5-5K, Tóth 3.6.1.4, to my gallery.
https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pid=180180
The coin is good silver. I was so excited to discover the unrecorded retrograde cm mintmark that I neglected to examine the legends and bought the coin, thinking it was the real thing. I know the dealer well, and expect that  he would have flagged the coin as a counterfeit if he had recognized that fact. Still, it is an interesting coin.
