| Obverse description | Armored bust of Zsigmond Báthori facing right, depicted in three-quarter length wearing elaborately engraved plate armor with a ruffled collar and a sword or baton visible at the shoulder. The effigy is contained within an inner beaded circle, with the portrait rendered in the late Renaissance hammered style characteristic of Transylvanian thalers. The circumscribed Latin legend reads SIGISMVNDVS BATHORI, interrupted by pellet stops, running along the outer border between the beaded inner circle and the milled rim. |
