| Reversbeschreibung | A ornate cross pattee with fleur-de-lis terminals at each arm divides the field into four quarters. The letters D, A, V, and I are individually placed in each of the four angles of the cross, with the letter D repeated at the center, collectively spelling the name DAVID in reference to Bishop David of Burgundy. The surrounding legend in Latin reads +DAVID: DE: BVRGONDIA: EPISCOPVS: TRAIECTE followed by D A V I D, the entire design rendered in the hammered style characteristic of Burgundian-influenced Low Countries coinage of the mid-fifteenth century. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
David of Burgundy was appointed Bishop of Utrecht in 1456 under direct pressure from his half-brother Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy, who wanted a loyal ally controlling the strategically vital see. The appointment was deeply contested — the cathedral chapter had elected another candidate — and required papal intervention to push David through. This gulden, struck the following year, was among his earliest acts of monetary authority, asserting legitimacy through coinage at a moment when his hold on the bishopric was still far from secure.
David would go on to rule Utrecht until 1496, but the 1457 issues predate the consolidation of his power.
