Hungary 1 forint 1946 to 1989

These are modern coins made of aluminum. Because of that, they do not carry much value. Some of the older dates begin to pick up a little collector value. Also, some coins minted in 1966 and 1967 are made of silver and these are quite valuable (see below)

All these coins have the large numeral 1 flanked by leaves. The reverse is slightly different based on date. Here are some typical catalog values:

FORINT 1946 TO 1949 WITH SECOND DESIGN (shown in secondary picture to left):
worn: $1 US dollar approximate catalog value
average circulated: $4
well preserved: $9
fully uncirculated: $18
coins dated 1946 are worth a little less than these values

FORINT 1949 TO 1966 WITH FIRST DESIGN (shown in primary picture upper right):
