The Ákos Barcsai 1660 Thaler coin from the Principality of Transylvania (Hungarian States) is interesting because it features a unique blend of Christian and Islamic motifs on its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of the Holy Trinity, while the reverse side features the Islamic crescent moon and star, reflecting the multicultural and religiously diverse nature of the Principality of Transylvania during that time.
