Note: this is a replica and not an original coin. Our coin is a copy and is not made of silver. In some rare cases the stamping is not perfect.

The Guldengroschen's name comes from the fact that it has an equivalent denomination value in silver relative to that of the goldgulden (60 kreuzer). In the latter years of the 1470s and early years of the 1480s Sigismund of Austria issued decrees that reformed the poor state of his region's coinage by improving the silver fineness back to a level not seen in centuries (.937 pure) and created denominations larger than the ubiquitous, but fairly low valued Groschen of 4 to 6 Kreuzer that were in use.

Weight: 24 grams
Size: 38mm Diameter

Face: SIGISMVNDVS: *: ARCHIDVX• AVSTRIE•, Sigismund standing in armor, wearing crown and holding orb; shield to left, crested helmet to right.
Rear: Armored knight on horseback right, carrying banner; arms of Austrian provinces around.

Perfect for use with dice games like Gluckhaus (House of Fortune), try this free game board for a fun game for all ages.

Excellent reproduction These coins are very high quality with a lovely patina that give them a great aged look. They look great as part of a display and would be impressive pulled out of a period pouch at any re-enactment.
