| Beschrijving voorzijde | Armored and draped bust of Mihály Apafi I, Prince of Transylvania, facing right, wearing an ornate fur-trimmed coat and a plumed helmet. The prince holds a baton or scepter over his right shoulder. A beaded inner border frames the effigy within the hexagonal klippe flan. The Latin legend is arranged around the bust, reading partially MIC. APAFI on the right and D.G.P.TRA. on the left, abbreviating his title as Prince of Transylvania by the grace of God. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Apafi ruled Transylvania as an Ottoman vassal from 1661, installed after the Turks crushed György Rákóczi II's ill-judged Polish campaign. His klippenmünzen — square-planchet strikes like this florin — were produced as presentation or Schaugepräge pieces rather than circulation coinage, a practice common among vassal princes who needed to perform sovereignty on paper while operating under considerable political constraint.
The 1680s were particularly precarious: the Habsburg reconquest of Hungary was accelerating after the failed Ottoman siege of Vienna in 1683, and Apafi spent his final years navigating between two empires. He signed the Treaty of Blaj with Leopold I in 1686.
