Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Florin - Michael I Apafi 1667-1690 coin from Principality of Transylvania (Hungarian States) is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil and political upheaval in the region. The Principality of Transylvania was a semi-independent state that emerged in the 16th century within the Kingdom of Hungary, and it was constantly struggling for survival and independence from the neighboring powers. Despite these challenges, the Principality managed to issue its own coins, including the 1 Florin - Michael I Apafi 1667-1690, which is a testament to its determination to maintain its economic and political autonomy.
