| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip Charles of Eltz-Kempenich served as Archbishop-Elector of Mainz from 1732 until his death in 1743, presiding over one of the most politically consequential ecclesiastical seats in the Holy Roman Empire — the Archbishopric held the role of Archchancellor of Germany and cast the first vote in imperial elections. His tenure coincided with the War of Austrian Succession, which began just three years after this coin was struck, drawing the Rhenish electorates into a web of competing dynastic pressures.
The Eltz family's hold on Mainz was notable; Philip Charles was the second of that house to occupy the throne, following his uncle.
