Beschrijving keerzijde Central shield bearing the quartered arms of Guelders and Jülich, surrounded by three smaller subsidiary shields, the entire composition enclosed within a trefoil (trilobe) frame with pointed cusps. The reverse legend is divided into three separate parts distributed within the trilobe design. The heraldic composition is rendered in typical late medieval Gothic coin style, reflecting the dual dynastic claims of the issuer.

Aanvullende informatie

Charles of Egmont spent nearly his entire reign fighting to keep Guelders independent — first from Habsburg pressure, then from outright attempts at annexation by Charles V. This gulden was struck across a period when the duchy was almost continuously at war, and the minting of gold coinage was as much a political act as an economic one: sovereign coin meant sovereign territory.

The "Clemmergulden" designation refers to the Flemish word for a clamp or grip — a term that entered collector vocabulary through early Dutch numismatic literature to distinguish this type from contemporary Rhenish issues.
