| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central shield bearing the Báthori family arms, displaying the three wolf's teeth device, surmounted by the initials G·B (Gábor Báthori) and flanked by the mintmaster's initial P. Below the shield appears the mint mark CIBIN (for Sibiu). The entire central device is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, surrounded by the circular Latin legend reading PRO·PATRIA·ARIS·ET·FOCIS· with the date 1611 incorporated into the legend. The coin exhibits a broad, flat hammered flan typical of early seventeenth-century Transylvanian coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Gábor Báthori's reign over Transylvania lasted only six years before his own hajdú soldiers murdered him in 1613, but his brief rule was marked by aggressive military campaigns, the brutal occupation of Hermannstadt (Sibiu), and a complete rupture with the Transylvanian Saxon towns whose mints and merchants underpinned the principality's coinage infrastructure. Issues from 1611 fall squarely within the period of his conflict with the Saxons, making the provenance of any given piece difficult to assign with confidence.
Resch 129 is among the scarcer half-thaler varieties of his reign, largely overlooked in Western collections relative to the full thalers.
