Interesting fact
The 1 Thaler coin from the Principality of Transylvania, minted during the reign of Zsigmond Báthori (1593-1595), is interesting because it features a unique blend of Gothic and Renaissance styles in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a shield with the Hungarian coat of arms, while the reverse side features a stylized image of the Virgin Mary and the Christ child, surrounded by intricate floral patterns. This combination of styles reflects the cultural influences of the time and adds to the coin's historical significance.
