1 Ducat - Ákos Barcsai

Ákos Barcsai ruled Transylvania under direct Ottoman pressure, installed after the catastrophic Polish campaign of György Rákóczi II left the principality militarily shattered and Ottoman patience exhausted. His reign lasted barely two years. The Ottomans forced the abdication and eventual murder of Rákóczi II in 1660, and Barcsai himself was executed the following year by János Kemény, his own successor.

Ducats struck in his name are scarce precisely because the mint operated under severe disruption throughout this period. Huszár's enumeration of the type reflects limited die use and a compressed production window tied directly to the political chaos of 1659–1660.
