| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within a beaded border, the displayed imperial eagle of Nuremberg occupies the central field, depicted with spread wings and detailed plumage in the style characteristic of late 16th-century German municipal coinage. The eagle faces forward with outstretched wings, rendered in high relief against a plain field. The circular legend reads MONE. REIPVB. - NVRENBERG., identifying the coin as currency of the Republic of Nuremberg. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nuremberg's gold gulden issues of the 1580s were struck under the authority of the city council at a moment when the Free Imperial Cities were quietly reasserting financial independence through coinage quality. Nuremberg held a reputation across the Holy Roman Empire for minting to exceptionally fine standards — a deliberate policy, since merchants trading through one of the Reich's busiest commercial hubs demanded coin that would not be questioned at any market from Antwerp to Kraków.
The .986 fineness here is not incidental. It marginally exceeded the Reichsmünzordnung requirements, a calculated choice that kept Nuremberg gold circulating at face value rather than being melted or discounted.
