| Obverse description | Right-facing draped bust of Georg Karl von Fechenbach, Prince-Bishop of Würzburg, depicted in episcopal vestments with a decorative clasp and elaborate drapery folds across the shoulder. The portrait is rendered in high relief in a naturalistic late Baroque style, with powdered wig hair visible above the collar. The circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy along the rim, reading GEORG. CAROL. D. G. EP. HERB. S. R. I. PR. FR. OR. DUX., identifying him as Bishop of Würzburg and Prince of the Holy Roman Empire. The field is smooth and unadorned, with the bust positioned centrally and occupying much of the coin's face. |
