| Aanvullende informatie |
Adam Frederick of Seinsheim held the dual roles of Prince-Bishop of Würzburg and Prince-Bishop of Bamberg simultaneously from 1757 until his death in 1779, one of the last ecclesiastical rulers to exercise that degree of consolidated temporal power in Franconia before secularization dismantled the Prince-Bishoprics entirely. His Goldgulden issues of the 1770s were struck against the backdrop of significant building patronage — he commissioned Balthasar Neumann's completed Residenz interiors — but the coins themselves were functional currency within a shrinking ecclesiastical economy increasingly squeezed by Josephine reforms from Vienna.
