| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central quartered coat of arms of the Archbishopric of Cologne, displaying the heraldic arms of Cologne, the County of Arnsberg, the Duchy of Westphalia, and further territorial quarterings, all set within a pointed oval shield. A bold Greek cross with ornate terminals divides the field around the shield, consistent with the standard Rhenish goldgulden reverse type of the period. The shield and cross design are enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin mint legend arranged in Gothic lettering around the outer border of the coin. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Herman IV of Hesse was appointed Archbishop of Cologne in 1480 but had administered the see from 1478, giving this goldgulden a production window of just two years. His tenure was administratively turbulent — he inherited a diocese deeply in debt from the prolonged Neuss War of 1474–77, during which Cologne had backed Charles the Bold of Burgundy against Siegfried II of Moers, a gamble that ended badly when Charles failed to prevail. Gold coinage from his brief archiepiscopal period is correspondingly scarce. Noss Co II#466 is the standard attribution for this type within the Rhine goldgulden series.
