| Additional information |
Amand von Buseck ruled as Prince-Abbot of Fulda from 1737 to 1756, presiding over one of the most artistically ambitious courts in the Holy Roman Empire. Pattern strikes in silver from Fulda's gold ducats are rarely documented and almost never survive in multiples — the Schön reference for this piece acknowledges it as an anomaly within the series.
The purpose was almost certainly presentation rather than monetary planning.
