| Beschrijving voorzijde | Full-length figure of Saint John the Baptist standing facing, robed, holding a long cross-scepter in his right hand, with a cross motif between his legs. The figure is rendered in the Gothic style typical of Rhenish goldgulden of the early 15th century, with the saint occupying the central field within a beaded inner border. A circular Latin legend in uncial lettering surrounds the design. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A quatrefoil frame contains five heraldic shields arranged symmetrically: four shields positioned at the corners of the quatrefoil and one centrally placed, displaying the armorial bearings of the County of Moers and associated dynastic territories. The shields bear eagles and geometric devices characteristic of Rhenish comital heraldry. Small decorative crosses appear between the lobes of the quatrefoil. A circular Latin legend in uncial lettering surrounds the entire composition within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick IV of Moers held the county from 1417 until his death in 1448, a period during which the Rhine goldgulden became the dominant trade currency of the lower Rhine corridor. Moers, despite its modest territorial size, held Rhine toll rights that gave its counts both the economic leverage and the political standing to issue gold coinage that would circulate credibly beyond their borders.
Fr#1748 is among the scarcer Rhenish goldgulden attributions in Friedberg, reflecting the limited striking capacity of a small comital mint operating intermittently rather than continuously.
