| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field dominated by a quartered shield of the Livonian Order, displaying a grid-patterned cross design with four equal sections, enclosed within a decorative wreath border of stylized foliage. The entire device is surrounded by a circular Latin legend along the coin's periphery. The design is characteristic of late medieval German-influenced heraldic coinage, executed in hammered relief. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Wilhelm von Fürstenberg served as Master of the Livonian Order during one of its most desperate periods — the years immediately preceding the Livonian War, which broke out in 1558 when Ivan IV launched his invasion of the Order's territories. This gulden was struck in the same year the Order's military collapse began, making issues from his mastership among the last gold coinages produced by a functionally independent Livonian Order. Fürstenberg was captured by Russian forces in 1560 and died a prisoner in Yaroslavl.
