Description The paper deals with the dispute around the planned coronation of the Lithuanian Grand Duke Vytautas (1429-1430). It contains an analysis of the coronation document (with its critical edition in the appendix), instructions for the envoys of the Roman King to Lithuania, and identification of members of the legation. The author stresses the importance of the expected coronation of Duke Vytautas as the foundation for a political alliance between Lithuania and the countries related to King Sigismund.
