Context
For this pictured example (Schulman Auction 365 Lot 1577) other dies were used and it differs stylistically considerably from other known Goldgulden from the period 1582 until 1592. The eagle side is considerably defaced by double striking. The use of different dies for the small amount of minted Goldgulden of the same mintage year - in addition so stylistically different - is unusual and raises a lot of questions in regards of the authenticity. *** This is presumably a genuine type: MünzZentrum Rheinland Auction 194 Lot 3030
