Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Forint coin from Hungary made of Nickel brass is that it has a unique design feature. The coin features a stylized image of a horseman on the obverse side, which is inspired by a famous Hungarian folk tale called "The Tale of the Miraculous Horseman." The horseman is depicted riding a horse while holding a saber and a shield, and the design is meant to symbolize strength, courage, and heroism. This design element sets the coin apart from other coins in circulation and adds to its cultural significance.
