1 Thaler - II György Rákóczi Nagybánya mint

György Rákóczi II inherited the Transylvanian throne from his father in 1648 and almost immediately began overreaching it. His disastrous unauthorized invasion of Poland in 1657 — launched without Ottoman approval and in defiance of explicit warnings from the Porte — ended in the near-total destruction of his army near Czorsztyn and triggered a chain of Ottoman military interventions that effectively ended his reign. The Nagybánya mint, one of Transylvania's most productive silver operations drawing on the rich ore deposits of the northeastern highlands, continued striking thalers in his name through the chaos.

Issues spanning 1651–1660 necessarily cross the political rupture of 1657, meaning examples from the later dates were struck by a prince fighting to reclaim a throne the Ottomans had already reassigned twice over.
