Prince Sigismund Bathori silver Thaler 1595, Dav-8804, Choice VF, dark gray toning with some lighter areas, featuring the usual sharp portrait. Sigismund (1572-1613) Prince of Transylvania and of the Holy Roman Empire, was an eager fighter of the Turks but not everyone in noble Transylvania wished to pursue this route. He won out and in the year this coin was struck, 1595, engaged in a wholesale revenge against those who opposed him and had them all executed. He and Michael the Brave of Wallachia became allies and they fought a mighty battle at Calugareni in August of the same year but, lacking sufficient troops, Sigismund retreated to his homeland, where he fought internal battles and the Poles for years before leaving his throne under duress. He died at Prague in 1613.
