Struck to commemorate the coronation of Charles VI as Holy Roman Emperor in Frankfurt on December 22, 1711, this quarter ducat belongs to a long tradition of Krönungsmünzen — coronation pieces distributed or sold during the festivities held in the city. Frankfurt retained the exclusive right to host imperial coronations, and the city mint reliably produced fractional gold pieces for each one, targeting buyers who wanted a keepsake but couldn't afford a full ducat. Charles VI was the last Habsburg to be crowned emperor in an uncontested succession; his death in 1740 without a male heir triggered the War of the Austrian Succession.
