| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large, finely detailed evergreen tree (fir or pine) dominates the upper field, rising from a landscape, serving as the personal device of the bishop and referencing the motto SEMPER IDEM (Always the Same). Below the tree stands the crowned and mantled quartered coat of arms of the Bishopric of Würzburg, supported on either side by rearing winged griffins as heraldic supporters. The date 1702 appears in the lower exergue beneath the shield. The entire composition is enclosed within a toothed inner border and a milled outer rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John Philip of Greiffenklau zu Vollraths held the Prince-Bishopric of Würzburg from 1699 until his death in 1719, governing during the War of the Spanish Succession — a conflict that drained Franconian finances considerably. Multiple-ducat pieces of this type were not struck for circulation; they served as diplomatic presentation gifts and court largesse, handed to visiting dignitaries or rewarded to favored subjects. Survival in any condition is uncommon precisely because recipients tended to mount or convert them rather than preserve them as coins.
