No, you'll get more for your Hungarian forints if you sell when the Hungarian forint buyback rate is low. This is due to a quirk of how British currency providers display their buyback exchange rates.
When you buy Hungarian forints, the exchange rate you get is the amount of Hungarian forints you'll receive for every pound that you spend, so for example a rate of 486.758 means you'd get Ft 486.758 for each £1 that you spend. You can calculate the total amount of Hungarian forints you'd receive for a given amount of sterling by simply multiplying the sterling amount by the exchange rate.
When it comes to selling Hungarian forints, the buyback rate is expressed in terms of how many Hungarian forints you'd need to sell in order to get £1, so a buyback rate of 486.758 means you'd need to sell Ft 486.758 to get £1. To calculate the sterling value of a given amount of Hungarian forints, you need to divide the Hungarian forint amount by the buyback rate. Since you're dividing by the buyback rate, a lower buyback rate means you'd get more sterling compared to a higher buyback rate.
One Hungarian forint (Ft) can technically be divided into 100 fillér, although fillérs are no longer in circulation due to their low value and the smallest unit of currency you're likely to come across is the Ft 5 coin. There are six denominations of Hungarian forint banknotes in circulation: Ft 500, Ft 1000, Ft 2000, Ft 5000, Ft 10000 and Ft 20000; and six coin denominations: Ft 5, Ft 10, Ft 20, Ft 50, Ft 100 and Ft 200.
The current series of Hungarian forint banknotes in circulation is the '2018 Series' which was introduced by the Magyar Nemzeti Bank in 2018. Each banknote in the series features distinct designs that showcase significant Hungarian figures and historical landmarks. For instance, the Ft 500 note depicts the portrait of Count Mihály Táncsics, an important figure in Hungarian literature and journalism, along with the image of the Hungarian National Museum. The Ft 1000 note showcases the portrait of King Matthias Corvinus, a notable Hungarian Renaissance ruler, and the image of the Castle of Gyula. The Ft 2000 note features the portrait of Prince Ferenc Rákóczi II, a key figure in Hungarian history, and the image of the Grassalkovich Palace. The higher denominations display images of other significant historical figures and landmarks, including the Parliament building (Ft 5000), the Chain Bridge (Ft 10000), and the Buda Castle (Ft 20000).
