Reverse description Six-line commemorative inscription in Latin recording the key biographical dates of Bishop Johann Gottfried II von Guttenberg, including his birth, election as bishop, and death. The text reads across the field in Roman lettering, with small cross ornaments separating lines and serving as decorative stops. At the base of the inscription, an imperial orb bearing the numeral 3 denotes the coin's face value of 3 Kreuzer. The overall layout is typical of German memorial issues of this period, prioritizing textual content over pictorial design.
