| Beschrijving keerzijde | A floriated or pattée cross is centrally positioned within a beaded inner circle, with decorative foliate or floral elements at the terminals and in the angles of the cross. The surrounding legend +SANCTVS·+·NICOLAVS, in uncial Latin characters, invokes Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of Fribourg. The overall composition is consistent with late medieval Swiss gold coinage of the period, exhibiting a bold and well-executed die engraving. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Fribourg's minting rights were hard-won and frequently contested — the city operated its own mint under imperial privilege while navigating constant pressure from the Habsburgs and the Swiss Confederacy simultaneously. This half-goldgulden belongs to a production window bracketed by the city's entry into the Confederation in 1481 and the broader monetary disruptions that preceded the Reformation-era coinage reforms across the Swiss cantons.
The HMZ 1#2-242 type is rarely encountered; Fribourg's gold output was modest at the best of times, and fractional gold issues even more so.
