| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central shield displaying the quartered arms of the Bishopric of Würzburg — the upper quarters bearing the raking flag (Rennfahne) of Franconia and the episcopal rake, and the lower quarters displaying the Dernbach family arms — surmounted by the denomination numeral III in the upper field. Two smaller flanking shields appear to either side of the central escutcheon. The whole device is set within a beaded border on a flat flan typical of late seventeenth-century hammered minor coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Peter Philip von Dernbach was elected Prince-Bishop of Würzburg in 1675 after a bitter capitulatory dispute with the cathedral chapter, which sought to curtail episcopal authority following the disruptions of the Thirty Years' War. His coinage program was conservative and short-lived — he died in 1683, and issues from the earliest years of his reign are the scarcest. The 3 Heller was among the smallest silver denominations the Würzburg mint produced, struck primarily for local market circulation in Franconia rather than regional trade.
