Felke 909 Slg. Walther 104 Link 33Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Goldgulden coin from the Archbishopric of Mainz is that it features an image of John II of Nassau, who was the Archbishop of Mainz from 1414 to 1417. This coin was minted during his reign and bears his name and title on the obverse side, while the reverse side features the coat of arms of the Archbishopric of Mainz. This coin is a rare and valuable example of a gold coin from the German States during the medieval period.
