One-forint note of the Hungarian government, 1848
The one-forint note of 1848, signed by Lajos Kossuth as finance minister of the first Hungarian government, the money Hungarians came to call the Kossuth bankó. Its text promises that every public treasury will take it for a forint of three silver twenties and that the Hungarian Commercial Bank will change it into silver at any time. The value is repeated in German and Slovak at the top and in Romanian and Serbian at the foot, the Serbian in Cyrillic as “Еданъ форінтъ”.
