| Beschrijving keerzijde | A cardinal's hat with pendant tassels surmounts a vertically oriented oval heraldic shield displaying the quartered arms of the Bishopric of Olomouc combined with the personal arms of Wolfgang von Schrattenbach, including a triple-barred cross, an eagle, and a star motif. The full ecclesiastical legend encircles the composition, reading BO S R I P R C B C P G S C R M C I E A, abbreviating the bishop's extensive Latin titles and dignities. The overall design is characteristic of early eighteenth-century Central European ecclesiastical coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Wolfgang von Schrattenbach served as Prince-Bishop of Olomouc from 1711 until his death in 1738, presiding over one of the wealthiest ecclesiastical territories in Moravia during a period of sustained Baroque patronage. The Bishopric held the rank of an imperial estate, giving Schrattenbach the right to strike coinage in his own name — a privilege exercised selectively, with fractional gold issues like this quarter ducat representing the upper end of everyday ecclesiastical currency rather than ceremonial presentation pieces.
KM#432 is among the smaller and less frequently encountered denominations from his reign, with the three-year production window suggesting limited and targeted mintage rather than sustained output.
