Walram von Moers served as Archbishop of Cologne from 1332 to 1349, making a 1445 attribution to him essentially impossible — the data here is almost certainly conflating two figures from the prominent Moers family, which produced multiple ecclesiastical and secular rulers across the Rhineland throughout the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The Barony of Baar held limited but recognized minting rights during this period, and goldgulden from such minor Rhenish lordships were typically struck to the Rhenish standard to facilitate trade acceptance.
