1 Goldgulden - Werner of Falkenstein

Werner of Falkenstein served as Archbishop of Trier from 1388 until his death in 1418, a tenure marked by persistent financial strain and conflict with the city of Trier itself, which repeatedly resisted archiepiscopal authority. The Rhenish goldgulden he struck were issued under the framework of the Rhenish Monetary Union, a compact among the four Rhenish electors — Trier, Cologne, Mainz, and the Count Palatine — that had standardized the goldgulden's weight and fineness since 1386.
