I apologise in advance that I only know English!
I am a recent coin collector (since 2013) and I find Germany and its early states very interesting. For each coin I like to write up information on the coin and its history together with that of the issuer (king/state/archbishop etc).
I recently acquired a Goldgulden of Mainz, Archbishop Gerlach von Nassau (1346-1371) and have started some research to add to my description of the coin and its historical context.
The only reference I have so far is Friedberg Gold Coins of the World ( ie Germany - 1598). I do not have any medieval German coin books so cannot locate the references that are quoted for a similar coin and its variations and wonder if any member has a copy of any of the following:
Felke, Günter: Die Goldprägungen der Rheinischen Kurfürsten 1346-1478. Sohren 1989. References quoted in auctions are: 20; 26; 30, 39 var. / 35;
Collection of Dr. Walther, Mainz. Auktion Dr. Busso Peus Nachf. 275, Frankfurt 1971. References quoted in auctions are 68 variation; 69 variation; 70;
I should like to clarify which reference my coin actually is and how the mint of Eltville is identified on the coin.
Many thanks for any help given!

Hello del,
i put your question into our Forum "Mittelalter", because it is a coin minted before 1500.

Hello del,
Your coin is Felke 30. Felke has put it to Eltville or Bingen mint, period 1360-1365.
There is no name of the mint in the legend of the coin, only : GERL AR´EPS / S IOHANNES B
