Struck during the late 14th century, this 1372–1390 Gold Gulden, graded NGC MS63, represents the robust commercial and political prestige of the Low Countries at the time. Issued under the authority of ecclesiastical or municipal powers, this piece blends religious symbolism with Gothic artistry.
Obverse: Features a seated bishop or ecclesiastical figure, robed and crowned, holding a crozier and cross within an ornate canopy. The arching architectural frame and radiating embellishments evoke sacred authority and civic power, emblematic of the issuing entity's influence.
Reverse: Shows a floral design centered within a quatrefoil and beaded circle, a hallmark of medieval Low Country gold coinage. The symmetrical layout and deeply struck legends reflect both fine craftsmanship and monetary integrity.
This Mint State example boasts remarkable strike definition with vibrant luster and only minor softness at the high points, typical of hammered issues. The coin's visual clarity, near-perfect centering, and historical resonance make it an exceptional specimen for collectors of medieval European gold.
