Beschrijving keerzijde Triple-helmeted oval coat of arms of the Bishopric of Würzburg combined with the personal arms of the Greiffenclau zu Vollraths family, elaborately rendered in the Baroque style with profuse acanthus leaf mantling flanking the shield on both sides. The three helmets surmounting the escutcheon bear distinctive crests, the central one topped with a plume arrangement. The divided date 17-03 appears in the lower field on either side of the base of the shield, within a plain border with a milled edge.

Aanvullende informatie

John Philip of Greiffenclau zu Vollraths held the Prince-Bishopric of Würzburg from 1699 until his death in 1719, a tenure that coincided with the War of the Spanish Succession — a conflict that drained the finances of virtually every ecclesiastical principality in the Holy Roman Empire. That Würzburg was still striking .986 fine gold ducats in 1703 reflects the stubborn insistence of German prince-bishops on projecting fiscal stability regardless of circumstance.

The Franconian Circle, of which Würzburg was a constituent member, had direct obligations to Imperial military levies throughout this period.
