Based on the Ram itself, this type is not able to be placed in one specific catagory, so its type was determined by its weight. The sub-types, A-D, all have minor varieties which are not distinguished in Haljak's catalogue.
An alternate proposed date range for this type is: 1351-1361.
Determining which type of Gotlandic örtug a specific piece is can be difficult due to how subtle some differences are. For some help with identification, try using the Single-access Key to Identifying your Gotlandic Örtugs.
