| Beschrijving keerzijde | Crowned Hungarian arms on a baroque shield occupy the center of the coin, flanked by decorative foliate supporters, all within a beaded inner circle. The date 1668 is prominently placed to the left of the crowned shield in the outer legend area. The surrounding legend, reading clockwise, contains the abbreviated royal titulature of the prince. The overall composition is characteristic of Transylvanian Baroque coinage of the mid-seventeenth century, with fine detail in the shield's quartering. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mihály Apafi ruled Transylvania as an Ottoman vassal, installed by Grand Vizier Köprülü Fazıl Ahmed Pasha in 1661 after the disastrous Battle of Nagyszőlős effectively ended his predecessor's reign. His gold issues were struck with some regularity through the 1660s and 1670s, but the Transylvanian mint at Hermannstadt operated under persistent financial strain — the principality owed tribute to Constantinople while simultaneously managing pressure from the Habsburgs to the west. The 1668 date falls between two particularly turbulent diplomatic episodes, the year itself relatively quiet only by comparison.
