Additional information

Ulrich of Württemberg was among the most turbulent rulers of the early sixteenth century — exiled twice, excommunicated, and briefly restored before his eventual return under Habsburgs terms in 1534. These goldgulden were struck across a reign so disrupted that consistent minting was nearly impossible, and surviving examples attributable to specific years within the range remain difficult to date with precision. The references align this piece with Ulrich's post-restoration coinage, issued after he reclaimed the duchy with the military backing of Philip of Hesse and the Schmalkaldic League.
