| Beschrijving keerzijde | The shield of Württemberg, displaying three rows of three antlers each (the traditional Württemberg arms) on a hatched field, is centrally positioned and surmounted by a large ducal crown. The date 1799, with a small decorative star or cross between the numerals, is inscribed below the shield in the exergue area. The design is bold and heraldic in character, consistent with the German small-state coinage tradition of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick II became Duke of Württemberg in 1797 under French occupation and immediately navigated a precarious position between Revolutionary France and the remnants of the Holy Roman Empire — which would itself dissolve just seven years later. The 1799 date places this issue squarely within that instability, when small-denomination billon coinage served the practical demands of a territory being squeezed by war contributions and shifting political allegiances.
The .333 fineness is notably low even by billon standards of the period, reflecting the fiscal pressures on a duchy stripped of revenue by French requisitions.
