The portrait is boldly struck in high relief, displaying strong baroque stylistic characteristics consistent with early eighteenth-century German medallic art. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles Philip, Count Palatine of Neuburg, ruled Jülich-Berg from 1690 until inheriting the Palatinate-Neuburg electorship in 1716 — making 1717 essentially the final year he governed these Rhine duchies in his own right before the administrative gravity of Heidelberg absorbed his attention. Multiple-ducat presentation pieces of this kind were not struck for commerce; they functioned as diplomatic gifts and court largesse, distributed at ceremonies, coronations, and treaty signings.
The Noss reference points to a tightly documented Düsseldorf mint attribution. At 34+ grams of near-pure gold, attrition was inevitable — most examples that survived did so in cabinet collections rather than circulation.
