To celebrate the 52nd International Eucharistic Congress to be held in Budapest this year, the Bank of Hungary issues a commemorative circulation coin with a face of 50 guilders (€ 0.14). Also two collector coins of 2,000 and 10,000 florins, the latter in silver, which are put on sale at a price higher than their face value.

Hungary will once again host the International Eucharistic Congress (IEC) between September 5 and 12, 2021. More than sixty speakers from almost forty countries from five continents will arrive in the Hungarian capital to attend this week-long international event . A rich spiritual and cultural program will enrich the Congress, at the closing of which Pope Francis will celebrate Holy Mass.

Hungary had the opportunity to celebrate one of the major events of the Catholic community for the first time in 1938. This Congress had to be postponed from 2020 to this year due to the global pandemic. After the completion of this act, the Pope will visit Slovakia until September 15.
