Beschrijving voorzijde Draped bust of Charles Philip of Greiffenklau-Vollraths facing right, wearing elaborate clerical robes with rich lace detail and a clerical collar, the hair styled in a long flowing wig characteristic of the mid-18th century. The engraver's signature VESTNER appears in small letters below the bust truncation. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait reading CAROLUS PHILIPP D G EP HERB S R I PR FR OR DUX, denoting his ecclesiastical and secular titles. The portrait is executed in fine high-relief style, displaying the accomplished medallic artistry of Vestner. The field is smooth and unadorned, focusing full attention on the dignified effigy.

Beschrijving keerzijde An elaborate allegorical composition depicting two standing female figures flanking a richly draped altar or table upon which rests the quartered arms of the Bishopric of Würzburg beneath a prince-bishop's hat. The figure to the left represents Pietas and the figure to the right Copia, with a radiant all-seeing eye within a triangle emanating divine light from above. The outer circular legend reads DAT DEUS APPLAUDUNT PIETAS ET COPIA RERUM, while a four-line chronological inscription in the exergue records the key dates: ELECT D 14 APR HOMAGIUM PRAEST D 26 IUN CONSE CRAT D 5 OCTOB MDCCXLIX, commemorating the election, homage, and consecration of the Prince-Bishop in 1749. The composition is finely engraved in the baroque tradition with strong architectural framing elements and drapery.
