    This coin is undated, but it was struck 1535-38.

    Fugger, Grafshaft
    Anton I Fugger 1530-65
    AV Goldgulden ND (1535-37)
    Weissenhorn Mint

    NOTE:
    Fugger were a rich merchant Family in the Holy Roman Empire, Jakob Fugger was famous for lending $$$ to finance wars, expenses for Emperors Friedrich III and his son Maximilian I. Here the Emperors had to go cap in hand begging Fugger for goldgulden.
    As a reward, Karl V HRE bestowed a fiefdom to Fugger Family, and named it Fugger. Thus on the coins, the Graf was immortalized, along with his overlord the HRE. 1599c69e553c30c445b8e24b1b16c073 (6).jpg
