Alexander von Bruchsal was a goldsmith, medalist and die engraver. He was responsible for coin dies for King Henry VII of England between 1494 and 1504, when he returned to Antwerp. He was appointed master of the Guild of Saint Luke in Antwerp in 1515, an elder of the Guild in 1527 and was mentioned by Dürer after a meeting in 1521. His self-portrait medal (1957.14.1181) is dated 1529 on examples which still include the inscription.
