Beschrijving voorzijde Panoramic view of the city of Nuremberg stretching across the field, rendered in fine detail with towers, spires, churches, and fortifications visible along the skyline, with a river and bridge in the foreground. Above the cityscape, a radiant all-seeing eye of Providence within a triangle emits long sunrays extending across the upper field. The legend TVTA HIS AUSPICIIS is divided across the upper portion of the coin flanking the divine symbol, with NORIMBERGA inscribed along the lower exergual border beneath the city view.

Aanvullende informatie

Nuremberg struck multi-ducat pieces for specific ceremonial occasions rather than general circulation, and this six-ducat issue marks the 1745 accession of Francis I as Holy Roman Emperor following the death of Charles VII — the only Wittelsbach emperor in three centuries, whose brief reign had humiliated Habsburg pretensions. The city, formally subordinate to the Emperor, had strong incentive to mark the Habsburg restoration with a conspicuous gold presentation piece.

Fr#1908 is among the scarcer Nuremberg gold multiples. The .986 fineness is characteristic of the city's ducat standard, which it maintained with unusual consistency into the late imperial period.
