This specimen was lot 3843 in Goldberg sale 90 (Los Angeles, January 2016), where it sold for $1,703.75. The catalog description[1] noted, "Transylvania. Ducat, 1629. Gabriel Bethlen, 1613-1629. Bare head right. Reverse: Madonna standing. NGC graded VF-35." The princes of Transylvania were sandwiched between the Ottoman Empire to the south and the Hapsburg dominions to the west and attempted to maintain independence from both. The Hapsburgs reconquered Hungary from the Turks in the 1680's and ended Transylvanian autonomy. This type is listed for 1628-29.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: 3.5 g, 0.986 fine gold, .110 troy oz AGW.
