Comment
László József Bíró - Inventor of the Ballpoint PenInteresting fact
The László József Bíró 1000 Forint coin was issued in 2010 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the birth of László József Bíró, a Hungarian inventor and engineer who is best known for inventing the modern ballpoint pen. The coin's design features an image of Bíró on the obverse, along with the denomination and the country's coat of arms. The reverse features a stylized image of a pen nib and the words "BÍRÓ LÁSZLÓ" (Bíró László) in bold letters. I hope you find this fact interesting!
