| Beschrijving keerzijde | Elaborate quartered oval coat of arms of the Bishopric of Lübeck and associated territories, displaying multiple heraldic charges including a lion passant, an eagle, a horse, and additional quarterings, the whole surmounted by a princely crown and flanked by decorative mantling or palm branches forming a wreath-like surround. The date 1775 appears in the lower exergue below the shield. The circular legend, divided into two parts separated by a dash, proclaims 'SUBDITORUM SALUS - FELICITAS SUMMA' (The welfare of subjects is the highest happiness), running around the full periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick August of Holstein-Beck held the Bishopric of Lübeck as a secular Protestant administrator — a Prince-Bishop in title only, the diocese having functioned as a territorial principality since the Reformation. The 1775 thaler was struck at a moment when the bishopric's independence was increasingly nominal, wedged between the competing pressures of Danish and Holstein interests in the region.
Davenport's attribution under German Talers II places this among a small run of late episcopal issues before the territory passed to the House of Oldenburg in 1803.
