附加信息	John I struck this noble in deliberate imitation of the English gold noble — a calculated monetary diplomacy aimed at facilitating Baltic and North Sea trade by producing a coin that merchants already trusted and priced. Denmark had no long tradition of high-denomination gold coinage, and John's adoption of the format was as much political posturing as economic pragmatism. He was simultaneously managing the Kalmar Union's increasingly fractious relationship with Sweden, and a credible gold currency reinforced Danish claims to regional dominance. Struck at Copenhagen, surviving examples are rare. The fabric tends toward slightly irregular flans, a known characteristic of the Copenhagen mint at this period.
