| Aversbeschreibung | Bearded bust of Archbishop Wilhelm von Brandenburg facing right, rendered in a bold late-medieval hammered style within a decorated inner field. The effigy is surrounded by a continuous circular legend in Latin, reading from the upper right. The portrait is relatively large in proportion to the flan, occupying most of the central field, with the decorative background visible around the figure. The lettering is deeply struck in Gothic-influenced characters typical of mid-sixteenth-century Baltic ecclesiastical coinage. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Wilhelm von Brandenburg served as Archbishop of Riga from 1539, but his tenure was defined less by ecclesiastical administration than by the catastrophic geopolitical pressure of the Livonian War, which broke out in 1558 when Ivan IV's forces invaded the Confederation. These goldgulden were struck at precisely the moment the Archbishopric was disintegrating as a political entity — Wilhelm would capitulate to Sigismund II Augustus of Poland-Lithuania within two years, effectively ending independent ecclesiastical coinage from Riga.
Fed#384 is among the final gold issues of the Archbishopric before its secularization.
