| Aanvullende informatie |
György Rákóczi II inherited the Transylvanian throne from his father in 1648, but his reign would end in catastrophe — a disastrous 1657 Polish campaign undertaken without Ottoman approval cost him the principality's autonomy and ultimately his life, killed by Ottoman-backed forces at Gyalu in 1660. This thaler predates that collapse by nearly a decade, struck when Transylvania still functioned as a stable, prosperous buffer state navigating carefully between Habsburg and Ottoman pressure.
The H#559c reference places this within Huszár's classification of the type, distinguishing it among several die variants documented for the 1649 emission.
