| Obverse description | Draped bust of Bishop Wolfgang von Schrattenbach facing right, depicted with long curled hair and wearing ecclesiastical robes with a prominent pectoral cross visible at the chest. The portrait is rendered in high relief in the baroque style typical of early 18th-century Central European coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy, naming the bishop with his full titles. |

| Reverse description | Elaborate baroque coat of arms comprising three ornately quartered shields arranged together, surmounted by a cardinal's hat with tassels and flanked by additional heraldic ornaments. A large cross is displayed prominently above the central shield arrangement. The date appears in the lower field divided by heraldic elements, and the surrounding Latin legend continues the bishop's full titulature. The overall composition is characteristic of high baroque ecclesiastical heraldic engraving. |
