| Reverse description | Central cartouche containing a multi-line Latin devotional inscription within an ornate rectangular frame decorated with scrollwork and floral embellishments. The text panel is surrounded by a circular legend divided by star stops, referencing the year of issue and a Gloria Dei dedication. The overall composition reflects the Calvinist piety of the Rákóczi dynasty, with the inscription attributing glory to God alone. The field outside the cartouche is filled with fine decorative flourishes typical of Transylvanian gold coinage of the period. |
