Beschrijving keerzijde A bold floriated cross with ornamental trefoil terminals divides the reverse field into four quadrants, each containing a heraldic shield. The four shields represent the electoral and territorial arms associated with the Archbishopric of Mainz and the Rhenish electoral league: the Mainz wheel, the arms of the Palatinate, Trier, and Cologne respectively. A small central boss marks the intersection of the cross arms. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner border, with a continuous Latin legend occupying the outer margin.

Aanvullende informatie

Adolph II of Nassau secured the archbishopric of Mainz only after one of the most protracted and destructive succession disputes in the see's history. His predecessor Diether von Isenburg had been deposed by Pope Pius II in 1461, triggering the Mainz Diocesan Feud — a war that ended with Diether's military defeat and Adolph's installation. This goldgulden, struck within the first years of his consolidated rule, belongs to a brief window of stabilized authority after nearly a decade of factional violence over control of the most powerful ecclesiastical electorate in the Holy Roman Empire.

The Felke 1421b designation distinguishes this among several closely related die marriages from Adolph's tenure.
