Dodatkowe informacje

Historical Context: This 1567 Guldenthaler was issued by George Frederick I, Duke of Jägerndorf (Krnov) in Silesia, a prominent Hohenzollern ruler. As Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach and Brandenburg-Kulmbach, he was a significant figure in the Holy Roman Empire during the mid-16th century Reformation era. His coinage asserted ducal sovereignty and economic authority within the Bohemian Crown Lands. The Guldenthaler, equivalent to a gold Gulden, reflected monetary reforms and the increasing importance of large silver denominations.

Artistry: The design exemplifies German Renaissance numismatic art, likely by an anonymous master engraver at the Jägerndorf mint
