Beschrijving keerzijde Central heraldic shield of Guelders — displaying the lion of Guelders — set within an elaborate Gothic quatrefoil or multi-lobed frame, the whole enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The shield is surmounted by a helmet with mantling, and the overall composition is characteristic of the Rhenish gulden type derived from the Florentine florin tradition. A cross pattée or similar stop mark appears at the commencement of the circumferential legend, which runs in Gothic uncial lettering between the inner and outer beaded borders, referencing the Benedictus verse from the Gospel.

Aanvullende informatie

Mathilda of Jülich ruled Guelders as regent following the death of her husband Renaud III, navigating a duchy perpetually squeezed between the ambitions of the Habsburgs, the Bishops of Utrecht, and the Duke of Brabant. The Rijnse Goudgulden — the Rhenish gold gulden — emerged from a monetary convention binding several Rhenish ecclesiastical electors who agreed to standardize a gold coinage, and Guelders, though not a formal member of that convention, produced imitative issues to compete in the same trade circuits.

Mathilda's issues from this period are among the rarest secular Guelders gold coinages of the fourteenth century, with very few specimens documented in major collections.
