Florin - János Zsigmond

János Zsigmond Zápolya — John Sigismund — ruled Transylvania as the only Unitarian monarch in European history, having formally adopted the faith after the 1568 Edict of Torda, which he himself promulgated and which remains the first legally enacted declaration of religious toleration in the Western world. These florins span the years immediately surrounding that edict, struck while he was simultaneously fending off Habsburg pressure from the west and Ottoman suzerainty from the south — a political tightrope that defined every economic decision of his reign.

The sheer volume of Resch reference numbers attached to this type reflects genuine die complexity across the emission period, not cataloging redundancy.
