| Obverse description | Armored and draped bust of Gábor Bethlen facing right, wearing an elaborately decorated cuirass with ornamental collar and a prominent chain of office across the chest. The portrait is rendered in high relief in the baroque style typical of early 17th-century Transylvanian thalers, with a full beard and strong facial features. The surrounding Latin legend reads GABRISD G PRINCEPS TRANS ET PARTHIE, separated from the bust by a rope-beaded inner border. |
