| Reverse description | A displayed eagle with spread wings occupies the center of the field, rendered in the heraldic style characteristic of Transylvanian coinage of the period; the word AQVILA appears beneath the bird, identifying the device. Mint initials A-I flank the eagle to left and right, referencing the Gyulafehérvár (Alba Iulia) mint. A horizontal band of decorative elements appears below the eagle, above a cross. The date 1657 and the abbreviated Latin legend PA RE HV DO ET SIC CO encircle the design within a beaded border, recording the prince's full territorial titles. |
