Aanvullende informatie

János Zsigmond Zápolya ruled Transylvania as prince from 1559 until his death in 1571, though his claim to the Hungarian throne — as the son of János I — was never fully extinguished, kept alive through Ottoman backing and the perpetual instability of the partition of Hungary after Mohács. These ducats were struck during the earliest years of his formal princedom, when Transylvania was consolidating as a semi-autonomous vassal state under Suleiman I rather than a fully independent polity.

The Resch reference distinguishes at least two die variants within this date range.
