| Reversbeschreibung | Elaborately crowned nine-fold coat of arms featuring a central shield of Mainz, combining the heraldic emblems of the Archbishop's secular and ecclesiastical dignities, set within ornate Baroque cartouche work. The electoral crown surmounts the entire composition and divides the date at either side. The circumferential Latin legend around the shield carries the continuation of the ruler's titles, identifying his roles as Bishop of Worms and Breslau, Papal Legate, Count Palatine of the Rhine, Duke, and related dignities. |

Franz Ludwig von Pfalz-Neuburg held the unusual distinction of simultaneously serving as Archbishop-Elector of both Mainz and Trier — a concentration of ecclesiastical and electoral power that made him one of the most politically significant figures in the Holy Roman Empire during the 1720s and early 1730s. Multi-ducat presentation pieces of this type were not circulating currency; they were diplomatic instruments, struck for distribution at court ceremonies, imperial diets, and as gifts to secular princes whose goodwill an archbishop-elector needed to cultivate.
The Fr#521 designation places this squarely within Friedberg's classification of German ecclesiastical gold multiples, a category notorious for surviving in single-digit population figures.
