Under a decree of its Revolutionary Governing Council, the Magyar Postatakarékpénztár (Hungarian Postal Savings Bank) issued small-denomination notes from June 1919; they were withdrawn in 1923. Two designs exist: the May 1919 sower-and-vase note offered here, and a later August 1919 design with a young woman. The notes were redeemable in Austro-Hungarian Bank notes, and the regime fell in August 1919 after 133 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e🎨 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe May 1919 type with a sower and a vase, printed in Budapest.
