This specimen was lot 1600 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2022), where it sold for $6,000. The catalog description[1] noted, "TRANSYLVANIA. Ducat, 1611/0. Gabriel Bathori. PCGS MS-62. Overdate. The only example graded on the PCGS population report. This RARE Ducat from the land where Bram Stoker's Dracula was set offers uncirculated details and a pale golden tone. Very little evidence of handling is present, but some weakness of strike is noted, a common affliction for the type. A great piece that only occasionally reaches market." 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 was struck 1610-13.
