| Beschrijving keerzijde | The elaborate quartered arms of the Archbishopric of Cologne and the personal arms of the Königsegg family, displayed on a large oval escutcheon surmounted by an electoral princely crown topped with a processional cross. The shield is supported on the left by a rampant griffin and on the right by a rampant lion, both rendered with fine heraldic detail. The mint master's initials IC-S appear in the lower field below the shield, flanked by floral ornaments, while the standard fineness inscription X EINE FEINE MARCK curves along the lower periphery. The reverse motto IUSTITIA ET MANSUETUDINE arcs across the upper legend, and the entire composition rests on a decorative scrollwork cartouche. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Maximilian Frederick of Königsegg-Rothenfels held the Archbishopric of Cologne from 1761 until his death in 1784, a tenure that coincided almost exactly with the reign of Joseph II and the mounting pressure of Josephinist reform on the ecclesiastical states of the Holy Roman Empire. His coinage is relatively sparse — the Cologne archbishops were never prolific minters — which keeps survivors in any grade from being truly common.
The Konventionstaler standard, fixed by the Munich Convention of 1753, obligated participating states to strike thalers at 10 to the Cologne mark of fine silver. Cologne's adherence was intermittent at best.
