No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
Ehrd de Naxagoras (pseudonym for Johann Erdmann Neithold) published 'Aureum Vellus, oder, Das Güldene Vließ' in 1715. This is a specialized German-Latin alchemical treatise. Extensive searches in scholarly catalogs, Google Books, and Open Library reveal no evidence of a complete English translation of this specific work. While the 'Golden Fleece' is a common motif in alchemy (e.g., works by Trismosin), Naxagoras's specific 1715 text remains untranslated into English.
