Unger Sz. 27, Rengjeo 248 [?], Mimica 191 [?] Hungarian Slavonia. Charles Robert (Károly Róbert in Hun.) of Anjou (1307-1342) and Ban Nikola Omodejev (1322-1325). AR denar, 82 g.
Obv. + MONETA REGIS P SCLAVONIA (irregular lettering), Marten running left, rosette of annulets above and below.
Rev. Patriarchal cross, facing crowned heads below, star and crescent above, annulets (privy mark) to sides.
Struck in Zagreb. The emissions from the reign of Charles Robert were debased and of variable weights, and were referred to by contemporaries as "banales novi." This coin does not appear to match that description. While Rengjeo and Mimica attribute this emission to Charles Robert and Ban Nikola, Unger indicates that it is of unknown attribution but from the 14th century. Metcalf, however, states that emissions with the NE ligate, such as this coin, are found only within Nuber Type AI, varieties 1 and 2, which were only issued during the reign of Bela IV (ending 1270), in which this privy mark was used.

Unger Sz. 3, Rengjeo 85, Mimica 28Hungarian Slavonia. Béla IV (1235-1270), Duke Stephen (István, in Hun.) (1246-1247) and Ban Stjepan Gutkele (1248-1260). AR denar, .98 g.
Obv. + MONETA.REGIS P SCLAVONI.A, Marten running left, star above and below.
Rev. Patriarchal cross, facing crowned heads below, star and crescent above, fleur-de-lis (privy mark) to sides.
Mint and dates of issue uncertain. Ban Stejpan Gutkele was commissioned by Béla IV to set up a mint at Pakrac, Croatia, in 1255. This operation was relocated to Zagreb around 1260, where a mint may have already been functioning. The tentative identification of the mint is therefore necessarily dependent upon the dates of issuance. This emission (within Nuber Type AI-II, variety 2) may have been issued as early as 1242 (per Metcalf) or 1255 (per Pohl) or 1256 (per Truhelka, Nuber & Homan); only the earliest of these dates comports with the attribution to Duke Stephen (per Rengjeo & Mimica). Despite the attribution to Gutkele, the mintage of this emission may have continued until 1270 (per Nuber via Metcalf). Struck with an average fineness of approximately .900 silver and an average weight of .972 g.
