| Beschrijving keerzijde | A detailed panoramic cityscape of Nuremberg occupies the central field, depicting the city's characteristic skyline of towers, spires, and fortifications along the riverbank, rendered in fine relief. Above the city view, radiating from the upper portion of the field, is the all-seeing Eye of Providence set within a triangle emitting rays of divine light. The coin standard inscription appears in the upper legend, indicating the fineness and weight standard (10 to a fine mark), and the city name NURNBERG is inscribed along the lower exergual area, with the mint-master's initials below. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nuremberg's status as a Free Imperial City gave it the right to strike its own coinage, but by the mid-eighteenth century that privilege was increasingly expensive to maintain. The Konventionstaler standard, established by the Convention of 1753 between Austria and Bavaria, set the 10-taler-to-mark-of-Cologne ratio that Nuremberg and other imperial cities were pressured to adopt — not by law, but by the practical necessity of keeping their coins acceptable in regional trade.
The city's mint was in chronic financial difficulty during this period, and the fourteen-year span of this type reflects slow, interrupted production rather than sustained output.
