This specimen was lot 1041 in Jean Elsen sale 132 (Brussels, March 2017), where it sold for €1,600 (about US$2,027 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"SAINT EMPIRE, TRANSYLVANIE (SIEBENBÜRGEN), Stéphane Bathory (1571-1576), AV ducat, 1573, Hermannstadt (Sibiu). D/ MON TRAN-S-IL S B D S Saint Ladislas deb. de f. en armure, ten. une hallebarde et un gl. cr. R/ PATRONA - VNGARIE La Madone à l'enfant assise de f. sur un croissant. En dessous, les armes de Hermannstadt. Rare. Très Beau à Superbe. (principality of Transylvania, Stephen Bathory (1571-76), gold ducat of 1573, Hermannstadt mint. Obverse: St. Ladislaus standing, armored head to foot, holding a lance and an orb; reverse: madonna and Child seated on a crescent, mintmark below. Rare, very fine to extremely fine.)"
This specimen appears to be 1575, not 1573. Friedberg lists this type for 1572-76. The Hermannstadt mintmark was two crossed swords, crown above.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: 3.5 g, 0.986 fine gold, .109 troy oz ASW, this specimen 3,52 g.
Catalog reference: Resch 16; Huszar 65; Fr-278.
