Interesting fact
The 10,000 Forint Semmelweis University coin from Hungary, made of Silver (.925) and weighing 31.46g, features an image of Ignaz Semmelweis, an Austrian-Hungarian physician and researcher who is known for his pioneering work in the field of antiseptic procedures. He discovered that the spread of puerperal fever, a disease that was causing high mortality rates among new mothers, could be prevented by simply washing hands with soap and water. His discovery revolutionized the field of medicine and paved the way for modern hygiene practices. The coin was issued in 2019 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Semmelweis' birth.
