| Obverse description | Half-length armored effigy of György Rákóczi II facing right, wearing elaborately decorated plate armor with ornamental scrollwork and a feathered cap. The prince holds a scepter in his right hand, and is depicted with a short beard in a formal, courtly style characteristic of mid-17th century Transylvanian coinage. A Latin legend surrounds the bust within a beaded inner border, reading the ruler's abbreviated titles. |
