It was adopted Transylvania's coat of arms by the Diet of 1659. It depicts: * on a blue background, a black eagle or Turul facing dexter, with gold bill and red tongue representing the Hungarian nobles. * the Sun (dexter) and the crescent Moon (sinister) representing the Szeklers. * a red dividing band (originally not part of the coat of arms). * seven red towers with black doors in two series (4+3) on a gold background representing the seven fortified cities of the Transylvanian Saxons - the display is connected with the German name of Transylvania - Siebenbürgen ("Seven Fortresses"). The red dividing band was used for the first time by Prince Michael I Apafi, and its first variant was featured on gold coins he issued in 1666.
