Commentary
Écu écartelé aux 1 et 4 de trois ramures, et aux 2 et 3 de deux bars adossés. Cet écu révèle bien les liens qui unissait la famille des comtes de Wurtemberg avec la ville de Montbéliard. Sur cet exemplaire, le O de CO au droit est pointé. Sans doute peut-il s’agir d’un différent de maître particulier.
Shield quartered on the 1st and 4th by three antlers, and on the 2nd and 3rd by two adjoining bars. This shield clearly reveals the links that united the family of the Counts of Württemberg with the town of Montbéliard. On this example, the O of CO on the obverse is pointed. This could undoubtedly be a particular master's mark.

Historical background
HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE - WÜRTTEMBERG-MÖMPELGARD - FRIEDRICH I
(1157-1608)
His father, Georges I of Württemberg, had married his mother, Barbe, daughter of Philippe the "Magnanimous" when she was only 19, at the age of 57. The couple quickly had a son, whom he lost. In 1557, a second son was born, the future Frederick I. George I died shortly after birth and the child was brought up by the family. Frederick I received the investiture of Emperor Rudolf II in 1580..
