Description: Blood Countess - Erzsébet Báthory Hungarian Nobility Serial Killer Silver Denar The ”Blood Countess“ Erzsébet Báthory was allegedly a brutal serial killer. A member of the Hungarian nobility, she was convicted of torturing and killing hundreds of young women over two and a half decades. This silver denar circulated in the Kingdom of Hungary during the life of Erzsébet Báthory. The obverse of the coin, ironically, shows the Madonna and Child. While documents from the 1611 trial supported the accusations made against her, modern scholarship has questioned the veracity of the allegations. Báthory was a powerful woman, made more so by her control of Nádasdy’s holdings after his death. The fact that a large debt owed by Matthias to Báthory was canceled by her family in exchange for permitting them to manage her captivity suggests that the acts attributed to her were politically motivated slander that allowed relatives to appropriate her lands.
