Hungary 5000 forint Orseg National Park Butterfly PF 70 NGC silver coin 2010

The Hungary 5000 Forint commemorative silver coin issued in 2010 celebrates the natural beauty of Őrség National Park, one of Hungary’s most treasured protected landscapes. This elegant rectangular Proof coin combines wildlife conservation with traditional rural architecture, honoring the harmony between nature and cultural heritage preserved within the national park. Located in western Hungary near the Austrian and Slovenian borders, Őrség National Park is famous for its forests, wetlands, butterflies, rare flora, and historic countryside settlements.

The obverse features a delicately engraved butterfly with finely detailed wings, antennae, and circular wing markings positioned beside the denomination. Flowing inscriptions surround the design in an artistic arrangement, creating a modern visual composition against deeply mirrored Proof fields. The reverse depicts the traditional rural buildings of Szalafő-Pityerszer, one of the best-known historic settlements within the park. The charming farmhouse structures with sloped roofs, chimney, trees, and surrounding landscape are rendered in soft relief, emphasizing the peaceful atmosphere of the protected countryside. The rectangular format gives the coin a medallic appearance and enhances the panoramic artistic scene.

Struck in silver with exceptional Proof quality and certified PF70 by NGC, this coin represents the highest possible grade of preservation. Combining themes of conservation, butterflies, national parks, architecture, ecology, and Hungarian heritage, it is an outstanding collectible for wildlife and nature-themed numismatic collections.
