Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Thaler - II György Rákóczi 1649 coin from the Principality of Transylvania is that it features an image of György Rákóczi II, a prominent Hungarian nobleman and military leader, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Principality of Transylvania on the other. This coin was minted in 1649, during Rákóczi's reign as Prince of Transylvania, and was used as a standard circulation coin in the region.
