| Beschrijving keerzijde | Full-length frontal effigy of Saint Nicholas of Myra, vested in episcopal robes and mitre, holding a crosier in his left hand and a book bearing three golden balls — his traditional attribute — in his right. The saint stands on a plain ground line in high relief, with his name divided and incorporated into the surrounding Latin legend. The legend is separated from the central device by a beaded circle, and the coin's border features a decorative laurel or rope pattern. |

Fribourg's late 17th-century Guldiners were struck against a backdrop of persistent financial strain following the Thirty Years' War, which — though the Swiss Confederation avoided direct involvement — devastated trade networks and drove coin hoarding across the region. The city relied on its mercenary export revenues to sustain minting operations, and these heavy silver pieces functioned partly as prestige objects, circulating among merchants and officials rather than in daily trade.
The HMZ 2-256b designation places this within a tightly catalogued sequence of Fribourg cantonal coinage. Die rust and irregular planchet preparation are not uncommon on this type.
