| Beschrijving keerzijde | The quartered and impaled arms of the Archbishopric of Mainz and the personal arms of Friedrich Karl Joseph von Erthal, displayed within an ornate baroque cartouche surmounted by an electoral prince's coronet and flanked by decorative palm-branch mantling. The date 1794 is divided to the left and right of the shield in the field, while the numeral 20 appears prominently in the exergue below the arms, denoting the denomination. The overall composition is characteristic of the high-quality engraving associated with late eighteenth-century Electoral German coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick Charles Joseph of Erthal was the last Archbishop-Elector of Mainz to strike coinage with any real authority. When French Revolutionary forces took the city in October 1792, the archiepiscopal mint was disrupted; Mainz changed hands again in 1793 after a Prussian siege, but the archbishopric's days as a functioning temporal power were effectively finished. This 1794 issue was struck in the final months before Erthal's death in July of that year, with the electorate itself dissolving entirely under French pressure by 1803.
