Reverse description Central oval shield bearing the arms of Transylvania — featuring the eagle, the seven fortresses (seven bars), and the sun and crescent moon — surmounted by a princely crown. The shield is surrounded by an ornate laurel or floral wreath. The date 1659 appears in the upper portion of the circumferential legend, which encircles the composition within a beaded border. The Latin legend around the periphery proclaims Barcsai's titles as Prince of Transylvania, Lord of Parts of Hungary, and Count of the Székelys.
