| Aversbeschreibung | Draped and armored bust of Margrave William Frederick facing right, wearing plate armor with decorative gorget and a voluminous long wig rendered in fine curling locks, executed in high relief in the Baroque manner. The legend encircles the effigy along the inner border, reading WILHELMVS FRID: D: G: MAR: BRAND. The field is smooth and uncluttered, allowing the portrait to dominate the flan, and the entire design is contained within a finely toothed inner border. |

The helm above the shield is surmounted by a spectacular crest of multiple crowns and eagles, with lion supporters at either side. The date 1715 is divided and placed in the lower field on either side of the shield. The motto legend RECTE FACIENDO - NEMINEM TIMEAS encircles the composition along the inner toothed border. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
William Frederick ruled Brandenburg-Ansbach from 1703 until his death in 1723, a period defined largely by his uncomfortable position between Hohenzollern family loyalty and the pressures of imperial politics during the War of the Spanish Succession. The multiple Davenport references — 1976, 1976A, and 1976B — reflect known die variations within this single year's production, a characteristic of small princely mint output where individual die pairs were cut by hand and replaced irregularly rather than standardized across a run.
Ansbach maintained its own mint at this period despite the margraviate's modest size, a privilege jealously guarded by minor German princes as one of the few tangible expressions of independent authority.
